It is a quarter turn plug. You have to use a 1/4" square drive (1/4" extension works great) to turn it. Turning it past a quarter turn will result in the whole thing coming out of the radiator and fluid all over the place.

If you need more room, you can pull the inner fender.

Hmmm! Is the 97 a similar set up? Everytime I flush my system I have a bear of a time with the petcock,but have yet to break one,nor had any need to turn past about a 1/4 turn anyway,so I guess I'm doing it gently enough with rubber padded channel-locks,but if there is a 1/4" square in there:I'd like to know! Thanks!
