I have this saved from Unibomber on NASIOC: http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=504002 Here's a gif of a procedure that looks to be current as of sometime in 2004:
yes i have that but I remember WJM mention a different procedure that get more of the old coolant out and has less trapped air
Drop the lower hose and pull off the t-stat housing and pull the t-stat out, that will drain 95% of the coolant. Make sure to use a NEW t-stat gasket...and a new t-stat is recommended as well.
