how to change the coolant 245 200

Passenger side, Approx. under #3 spark plug. Brass colored. 17mm wrench (I think)It has a nipple that you can put a hose on. A 5/8 heater hose fits pretty good.

Draining by pulling the radiator hoses off is risky with these plastic tanked radiators.

Refill slowly to try to prevent air pockets.

When starting car after filling, watch Temp gauge. as it starts to climb, you may want to grab the upper hose with both hands and squeeze it several times quickly to Burp the air out.
