needed to change my antifreeze,sooo i tried to take out the block plug and the 3/8 extention is to big, oook, i find a drain plug socket set at harbor freight, metric square and hex heads and 5/16 and 3/8. 5/16 fit and 8mm fit,but no leverage and the damn square hole started rounding out. soooo i just pulled the lower rad hose and it drained and started runnin water thru it as it started gettin dark. will finish it tomorrow. looked like i had a little oil in the water,but no water in oil or tranny. and my thermo housing was kinda loose,i think oil seeped in the top from my leaking valve cover right in front. oil around the stat and inside the housing.
