I am changing the radiator in my 2.5 D May 1997 Ducato and want to take the opportunity of flushing the cooling system before refilling with fresh anti freeze. The Peter Dussek workshop manual says simply "remove the protective panel below the engine and unscrew the drain plug in the cylinder block...". Can anyone tell me what I should be looking for and where?

Thanks John. I've just realised that my question was published in the wrong category and so I have repeated it in both the Vans and in the Motorhomes sections (my vehicle is a Ducato based motorhome).

I'd be surprised if there was a drain plug - but I could well be wrong! I usually undo the bottom radiator hose anyway - it lets more coolant out.
