Cleanest would be to pull the push rod cover and remove the drain bolt from the cylinder head.  It takes awhile due to the small drain hole, but it's the lowest point on the engine.


Cheers, 


Jeff

I need to drain some/all coolant in order to replace hoses on oil cooler and coolant pump. From a practical do-it-yourself point of view (picture laying on your back under the van in the slightly slanted driveway) what would be the best approach. Can't move the vehicle from where it sits.
