I tried to drain the coolant from radiator but did not get far. I was able to turn open the drain valve as much as a ¼ to ½ a turn without too much force until it came to a full stop but no fluid came out. Not a drop! I repeated this action of opening and closing the drain valve a couple of times thinking that it would loosen the valve past half a turn but it always came to a full stop. I could have applied more force but I was afraid of breaking the valve since it’s made of a plastic resin similar to the upper and lower radiator plenums. Can anyone provide me with a tip on how to open the drain valve and how much of a turn do you need before it starts to open?
