CRX Radiator Drain Plug Location
Need help locating radiator drain plug for 1990 CRX.
Would appreciate someone sending back location. Want to flush radiator and re-fill myself and not a shop. Thank you |

That's probably a better way anyhow. The drain plug or white plastic wingnut thingie is rather small and made of plastic that gets brittle with age. If backflushing is on the agenda, the large bottom hose orifice gives better access. |
