Hey guys I bought a 180 Thermo and I was reading the instructions on the back and it says you must drain the cooling system. Is this necessary? [img]graemlins/burnout.gif[/img]

Hell no.
Someone should post to whether or not there is a drain plug though. I dont know if there is or not.
On my old '00 Blazer there was no drain plug on the radiator and when I installed the 160 deg thrermo I just pulled off the hose to the t-stat and just let the minute amount of antifreeze hit a bucket I had under the truck.
So, if there is a drain plug, drain a very small amount. If not, or maybe even if there is one.. just pull the hose off - it's all good. Expect an extra 5 minutes to your work to clean up the floor.2002 Camaro SS 6 Spd<br />Sebring Silver Metallic<br />Still breaking it in<p>Traded in - 2002 V6 5 Spd Camaro.<p>\"I\'ll never trust squirrels again.\" -
Thanks Cale. There is a plug on the radiator though. I remember I drained my old antifreeze last time there were freeze warnings and I put in some new one. [img]graemlins/burnout.gif[/img]
