csrmel Posted October 18, 2006 Report Posted October 18, 2006 uhm, theres 1 10mm bolt on each cylinder to drain coolant. its free. Quote
Bansh-eman Posted October 18, 2006 Author Report Posted October 18, 2006 and it drian all over my baby... i want something that keep me from having to clean under my carbs when i need to drain it... Quote
dawarriorman Posted October 18, 2006 Report Posted October 18, 2006 uhm, theres 1 10mm bolt on each cylinder to drain coolant. its free. That doesn't drain nearly all the coolant. Pro design makes a replacement water pump cover that has a drain plug in it. If I remember right, it only costs like 10 bucks or so. Rocky Mountain has them I know, FAST probably does too. Most places should have it. Nice to have, but just be careful, when you pull the plug, the coolant shoots straight out, it makes a mess if your not ready for it. Quote
RNBRAD Posted October 18, 2006 Report Posted October 18, 2006 The pro-design is like 29 to 34 depending where you buy. You could tap your stock plate and put a flat head allen screw with a copper washer for probably a mere 50 cents. Quote

djackbanshee Posted October 18, 2006 Report Posted October 18, 2006 (edited) i welded a piece off round bar on my stock cover and made it long enough that it goes through the plastic water pump cover and put a nut with a copper washer. Its an easy easy drain, you dont even have to take anything off + you can put a pan just under it so no mess. Edited October 18, 2006 by djackbanshee Quote

I wouldn't want to try and simply tap the cover, its not that thick, and would be easy to strip. Edited October 18, 2006 by dawarriorman Quote
bansh03 Posted October 18, 2006 Report Posted October 18, 2006 Vito's sells the Pro Design quick drain too. Have one on my Shee and it works good. Quote
csrmel Posted October 18, 2006 Report Posted October 18, 2006 thats cool.. i guess the original posted had me confused because i never knew you could make a quick drain for the waterpump cover. Quote
dajogejr Posted October 18, 2006 Report Posted October 18, 2006 I WON mine from this site, it's a Mod-Quad version. The cover fits back on tight, but...it works, sort of. When I use the allen plug to drain the coolant, I have to put orange hi temp RTV on the allen plug to get it to seal...or it will drip, no matter HOW tight it tighten it. But, it was free from HQ...so, I'm not complaining.... http://modquad.com/store/search_results.as...mp;txtCatName=2 Quote

dajogejr Posted October 18, 2006 Report Posted October 18, 2006 What do you mean if I could??? What do you think holds my 5 piece stock plastic gas tank together??? Someone told me that if you add it to the gas, it'll help seal your crank bearings. Or was that Trans fluid...I forget. ***Disclaimer. Do NOT Add anything but gas or premix oil to your gas tank...this was a JOKE!!! *** lol... :yelrotflmao: Quote

dajogejr Posted October 18, 2006 Report Posted October 18, 2006 Two things... 1. I don't want somebody to fubar their engine on my behalf due to a joke, and 2. I don't want someone saying "Oh, well dajogejr said to do this" and well, you know... I have an easy enough time looking like an idiot...I don't need any more help in that department!! :beer: Quote
