What manual are you getting this info from?

Some radiators don’t have a drain petcock.

But they all have a lower radiator hose you can disconnect. That’s usually much easier and faster than the drain if it even exists…What happens often with the drain, you break the plastic fitting or, if it’s brass, the soldered in drain fitting comes lose before the drain opens…

I did google it, But I must have over looked the better info.  
I have never been to [Fixya.com](http://Fixya.com), But now it’s in my favorites  
The Manual that I used is Haynes…(As a kid, I always liked Chiltons more)  
Thank You for the help  
Happy Holidays
