actually the shop manual says both knock sensors are drains. I hate breaking things and put in a prestolite flush kit hooked up to the heater hose. then after circulating flush through the system 2 days I warmed it up with cap off reservior tank and then when ready to flush, cracked/opened radiator drain replacing coolant with water from hose. I continued to run, radiator cap off, hose on medium, regulating level with the radiator drain plug. Once I was sure it was totally flushed, I turned off hose , radiator drain and engine and let it cool. once cool, I drained the radiator fully and closed, water off.
Now is a great time to replace thermostat and radiator drain plug. Then I added 1/2 of total capacity in 100 percent coolant. Mixing 50/50 there is no way to allow for water still in engine. Then top off with fresh water.
