Personally I would not mess with the petcock at all. What happens if it breaks? All that plastic get a bit brittle with all those heat cycles.
I pump mine out as suggested. I have a fluid extractor vacuum pump that I got from Griots and it is so handy. Just pull out 6 quarts or so of coolant with the pump as mentioned by another poster. You can put it back in if it is still fresh.
