Coolant capacity
Hi
I was wondering if anyone could tell me the coolant capacity for a 1996 bazer with a 4.3?

RE: Coolant capacity
Capacity should be roughly 11.7quarts. When refilling a flushed cooling system, first flush it with 3-4 gallons of distilled water, then drain as much as you can. Pour in 6 quarts (1.5 gallons) of coolant concentrate (i.e. not 50/50 mix), then top off with distilled water. If you have drained the overflow tank as well, take the remaining 1/2 gallon jug of coolant concentrate and fill it with distilled water. Shake the jug before filling up the overflow to the recommended level.
Hope this helps!

RE: Coolant capacity
Thanks
That helps alot. How is the best way to get all the coolant out. I tied to take the lower rad hose of but I know there is more in the block/heater core. Does anyone know if there is a plug on the block that i could remove?
