Default 98 Stratus how drain rad

This has no doubt been posted before, as I cannot see any rad drain (can
hardly see the rad!) I'm thinking pull the hose off. Can only just get at
the engine connection and will make for difficult flushing. Do you have to
pull the rad support at the top and the colling fans out to get at the
bottom rad hose connection? Many thanks.

You are correct. I posted this same question a week or so ago. If you
have the 2.4L engine, the drain is on the left side. The valve turns
about 90 degree to the left. At this point, gently pull it back. It is
hard to do this only by feel.

The last time that I did mine, I disconnected the bottom hose from the
engine.

If you have the 2.5 V6, the drain is on the right side.
