Which reminds me..

Is there a cheapass trick to drain coolant neatly (installing a valve
inline with the lower rad hose or sth?) so it can be reused after you
drain it ?

Whenever I pull the two hoses the bentley specifies for drainage, the
coolant drips from every hose, bracket and flange in the vicinity,
picking up a lot of dirt and oil on the way to the drain pan.

I never feel like putting it back in the car after that, even though it
probably doesn't matter. To me it just feels wrong, like eating something
off the floor. (*)


Yeah, I spoil my car..
