Yes, but it would be tricky getting a tube in somewhere to go to the =
bottom of the block.  You might have to take the pump off, that gives =
quite good access, then raise the rear of the car enough to tilt the =
engine forwards.  Flush the heater as well, that's relatively easy.

  Yeah, I went out to the garage last night and tried, yet again, to get =
a piece of coathanger wire up into that passage without avail. I may =
have a more flexible piece of wire to try this evening. It may nit be =
the end of the world, but I like for things to work if they will. Had I =

  Could I suck the coolant out with a shop vac?
