Radiator Drain Petcock...where?

[h00kem]

I've looked all over the bottom of my radiator and have yet to see anything that could possibly be the drain petcock or screw other than the thermoelectric switch. Can someone point me in the right direction or possible have a picture of one for a series I 330GT?

Greetings... Do you still have the belly pan that runs from under the grill to the front crossmember? On my 64 the petcock is above a cutout in that pan. Don't remember which side (I think right hand side) but it is on the back side of the bottom tank-not on the bottom. I'd go look but I'm going to bed now and the car is a mile away. Tim

Some cars have the drain petcock welded to a pipe off the lower hose.

Thanks guys. The belly pan is long gone. I'll follow the hoses and see what i can find. I suppose if it comes to it I can just pull a lower hose.

Mine (series 2) is on the inlet pipe at the bottom of the radiator. This picture is taken looking down from the LF side, near the mechanical fuel pump.

You can see the access hole in the radiator pan right underneath the petcock.

Thanks Kerry. I'll have a look.
