2B Block Coolant Drain Location!?? (1 Viewer)

[AYN LAND]

Can anyone please help me locate the coolant block drain location on 2B. I've searched exhaustively in MUD and an online and I've found schematics that show the location but I can't find it. I've creeped all over from every angle. I'm sure I'm looking right at it and not realizing. Found plenty of threads on 3B which is not the same. Thanks in advance.

Parts diagram does show it rearward and above dip stick entry point..

Is this it peeking out?

I found that schematic and it's just not there... there is nothing to the right of the dipstick, unless it is hidden behind something. I've held a light up and taken a picture of the block and don't see anything.

Did you ever find it? I'm having the same issue... There is what appears to be a plug on the lower front RT gear case. Cany figure out what it is for, but doubt it is a block drain.

Found it! just above the starter behind the fuel controller. There should be a short drain hose attached to it. tricky little bugger to find.

Are you sure you didnt just find the EDIC Motor drain?

Pretty sure. It was on the block behind and below the EDIC. Mine was plugged solid, had to poke around with a welding wire to get flow. Unless... the EDIC was full of coolant for some reason, hmmm...

I'll see if I can get a picture

Well, that wasn't easy. Left rear of block just above the starter.
