planning on doing the coolant flush soon need to know where this is at

 

nevermind founded a way to flush it

 

So you pulled the lower radiator hose!

 

i just drained the coolant from the drain plug, and brought something called prestone radiator flush and followed the steps, old coolant was brown when i drained it out for the first time and now is a nice green color.

 

Nice job.

For some reason Japanese manufacturers use a brown colored coolant right in the factory. I don't know why they would do that, it covers up rust problems when they occur.

mazprOO, could you please put your car's data into your signature?

 

Hey tanprotege yeah i just added my car info to my signature

In the pictures the brown coolant was what was in there before i did the change.

The green coolant is whats in there now. Its funny that the brown coolant didn't even have no rust in it. Probably mazda does have oem brownish coolant.
