  • Coolant Change - Cylinder Block Drain Cock Plug

    Anyone know where the cylinder block drain cock plug is on a 150 series?

    I want to do a coolant change and flush and Toyota Global Service Information Centre CD for a diesel 1KD-FTV engine says I should loosen the cylinder block drain cock plug as part of the coolant draining process.

    Any advice would be good, thanks.

    Sure, near the starter motor. 10mm. Under the oil filter area.
    I use a 1/4 drive, extension maybe 3or 4" long & 10mm snap on socket.
    Congratulations on doing it right.

      Thanks very much #############,

      I have been searching the internet all night and have found zip as to where that little sucker is, now (hopefully) I can do the job properly, really appreciate your reply. Now all I have to do is find the starter motor ha ha.

      You tube have a few variations on doing a radiator coolant change, is it necessary to flush with distilled water if i'm going to dump that water after flushing. I was thinking of using the Scottish method and use tap water mixed with a chemical radiator flush for the first flush. Then do a second flush with water and then fill up with the Toyota red cordial 50/50 when there is no more evidence of old coolant.

      Surely tap water wouldn't make any difference when flushing?

        1. Coolant reservoir cap
        2. Vent plug
        3. Drain plug
        4. Engine drain plug

          Thanks Toyo for your help however I was using that picture to try and locate the cylinder drain cock plug in the first place. It is not in that position as in the photo and you cannot see it from above. It is under the oil filter and above the starter motor as stated by #############. It is in fact in a very difficult position to access to be honest but at least now I know where it is. Thank you both for your help.

              Cylinder block drain cock is accessible through the front left wheel arch.

                That'd be just about right..........................
