Hello We just bought our second MH. The first was 20 years ago, and we have forgotten most of what we knew! (Which wasn't all that much anyway)
We bought a 28 ft., 1991 Silver Eagle Coach with a 454 Chevrolet Engine.
Our problem is with the engine coolant. The radiator needs to be drained and flushed, also the engine block. Question, does anyone know where the drain plug for the engine block is located and is there one on each side?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Have read a little on some of the forums and seems most everyone is very friendly and helpful. Looking forward being a part of rving crowd.

There should be a pipe plug on each side of the block with a hex head on it. sometimes when the plug is taken out the block still won't drain as scale is plugging the hole. If this happens stick a small screwdriver or something in the hole, and get ready for a bath.
