    Sorry, probably a stupid question, but the service manual doesn't show a picture of where the drain plugs are for the coolant in the block. Where are they?? I did a search, but not finding anything... THanks guys!

    My dauntless did not have a block drain in it. You will need to do it thru the radiator.

    my 225 has a pipe plug on each side of the block. the pasenger side is right above the rear of the starter. the drivers side is right behind the rearmost freeze plug. whenever i change coolant or tear into my motor i pull these and compleatly drain all coolant out of the block

    well, I think that I must have the block with no drain plugs, 'cause I sure couldn't find them... I ended up just running a hose and flushing the block out by running water both forwards and backwards
