Hi Kris, if its died because of coolant failure then I would certainly drain the coolant system as to not cause any more damage, other than that should be okey as is.
how would i do that? is there any manuals about with directions?
There is a drain hole at the bottom of the radiator, and one on the block which I can never find :( sure someone will put up a pic for you.
yeah plaese if someone could put a pic up that would be good
The FC one is pretty much right above the engine mount, so you get at it from the top, its under the spark plugs. The blocks are pretty similar, so its worth having a look. Its got a long hex head and is a goldy/brown colour if that helps.
cheers for that bud il have a look but il still wait out for a pic aswell just to confirm iv got the right one...dont wanna undo something i dont need 2 lol
