What is the easiest way to flush the coolant out of the system with the motor still in the frame? I'm switching over to evans and I want to make sure I get all the old coolant out.

Thanks,
Brandon

I pull the lower coolant neck and lower radiator hose. Leave the cap off tip the quad to the right . Use a shop vac for a few minutes on each opening and there will be nothing left in the system.

Once you get the Evans in there leave the cap off bottle for awhile letting motor get good and hot. Water will go off as steam and only Evans will be left.
