Hello, my name is Dee. I am doing an coolant flush on my 06 Acura tl. In the manual it says to drain coolant from radiator, done that. it then says to fine the engine coolant plug on the back side of the motor. I'm having trouble locating I..Do you have to empty the coolant from the block or can you go ahead and just flush the system anyways?
