Well yea I know I could do that, but I would like to know if there is a way of draining the whole system short of removing the heat exchanger.

I used a antifreeze tester to draw out the coolant then added the amount of water wetter the bottle said to use. The system holds 2 quarts right? You dont plan on filling it with that stuff do you?

Read the bottle and if you mix it with a 50/50 mix it should be ok. Racin Randy if you know it would **** something up then why wouln't you just provide helpful info instead of responding with a smart ass comment.

There are several different configurations you can use Water Wetter in.

1. 50 Water Wetter : 50 Water
2. Water Wetter added to Coolant (see label for ratio)
3. I can't remeber the rest.

I say siphon it out with a wet/dry vac, or a pump like someone said. Good luck, and let me know how it works out for you.

Proper draining of the system is to remove one of the hoses.

Per the factory manual to drain the intercooler coolant you need to remove the hoses from the pump and let it drain.

So there is no plug.

Water and water wetter will probably work good as long as it stays over 32 degreee.

I know this may sound stupid but with Stage 2 for the SRT-4 it comes with intercooler sprayers.. Is there such a thing for our setup and would it help?
