1.Turn the drain cock stem counterclockwise to unscrew the stem. When the stem is unscrewed to the end of the threads, pull the stem from the radiator tank. INSTALLATION: 1.Push the draincock assembly body into the tank opening. 2.Tighten the drain cock stem by turning clockwise to 2.0 - 2.7 Nm (18 - 25 inch lbs.) .
