<E28> Coolant drain plug

[Pearson-Franks Family <pearsonf@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

'Lo, Maria!

Some of the E28 radiators had a drain plug - a little blue guy
right under the lower radiator hose connection; some didn't.
Someone might have better G2 and be able to tell you the year
ranges involved - I would just take a look.

You will also want to pull the drain plug on the block - a 17mm
head, at the rear of the block on the passenger side, just above
the junction with the oil pan.  Which places it right under the
exhaust manifold, so pick your time wisely!  ;~)

Have fun, Larry F.
