Default Re: Drain valve question

Do not know if this will work, think it should. Just get some clear tubing that will fit tight over the drain valve outlet, cable tie it or super glue onto the outlet. Cable tie/mount the other open end of the tube somewhere above the full expected level. Open the valve when you want to check, close the valve after you check.


Cost would be for the clear tubing, and a couple of cable ties or superglue.


If you want to drain via the drain valve, cut the cable tie on the high part of teh tube and place the tube below the level of the motor.. Re-cable tie when done.



Mark the tube for full hot, and full cold, the level hot should be higher than when cold, and the cold level should indicate slightly above the radiator core.
