so after struggling with this for about an hour and trying various tricks from Anders et al... I got it! except nothing is draining out! I got a few drips initially when on the cusp of opening (numerous times). Now nothing... It turned 90 degrees counter clockwise, and it's pretty clear that it worked ok - nothing is obviously broken etc.
do these drains ever get clogged or something?!?
I'm just trying to deal with the t-stat and temp sensor and would like to drain to avoid spilling coolant everywhere... cel came on along with the classic temp gauge behavior of a stuck open tstat...
