[DeTomaso] Draining Radiator

[John Taphorn]

I do not know if this is easiest or best; yet, it is how I do it.  I jack 
the rear of the car up in preparation of lifting out the engine.  I then 
slide a pan under the waterpump and loosen the hose connections between the 
hoses beneath the front of the engine and the lower pipes that extend to the 
front of the car.  Generally, this involves loosening the clamps and 
sticking a screwdriver between the pipe and the hose to allow the coolant to 
drain out.

I never actually drain the radiator.
