Message I`m wanting to just drain and refill the radiator (not flush the entire system). I searched and all of the posts I found involved flushing the entire cooling system. My fluid looks brand new (car has just reached 60k) but I want to keep it fresh.

If I just drain the radiator only (isn`t that the drain plug that`s revealed when you open that small velcro hatch on the passenger side of the splash guard?) how much fluid does it hold? Also,when just refilling the radiator only,how much coolant should I install along with the distilled water?

Also,what`s the best brand/type of coolant to use in our cars? This is something I know absolutely nothing about.

Thank you!
