First time Rad Fluid flush is due for service. The manual instructs to remove the ~1/2" hose that runs from the radiator to the back of the block to drain the fluid. The FEL frame blocks access to the hose clamp and we all know how those hoses like to "stick" once they have been clamped and heated. Has anyone ever installed a Prestone Flush Kit T adapter (or similar) on that hose so that the Radiator can be easily drained by unscrewing the drain cap ? Instead of getting fluid running in all directions, it can be drained right into a bucket. Anyone have an opinion on installing this T fitting and if this is a good idea or bad idea ? Not planning to use the entire flush kit..just the Tee. Seems like it makes all future Radiator flushing service much easier. Cant find anyone on this forum who has done this so I am a bit concerned and want to get some advice from the experienced mechanics before I try this and regret it later. Thanks
