draining coolant

Posted by steve828 On 2011/10/30 9:12:33

Doing a fall season change of coolant on my 1954 Packard Clipper Super 327ci L-8. The owners manual says, in addition to draining the radiator fluid through the radiator stop cock valve, that I should "remove the plug from the cylinder block near the starter." Do they mean the aft of several large pressed-in plugs along the cylinder block wall, or is there one specific threaded plug they are talking about? The only 'plugs' (freeze plugs?) I see appear to be the ones pressed into the cylinder block wall on the driver's side of the engine block. Please advise. Thanks again for all your help.
