The coolant drain plug on my Westerbeke generator is accessible on the side of the engine. But how do you drain the coolant without getting coolant all over the nearby components, wiring, bilge, etc ? For my mains I attach a suitably sized hose to the drain cock and it drains into a bucket without a mess. The generator just has a plug screwed into the block and once it is removed I expect coolant will flow everywhere. What ideas do you have for changing the coolant without a big mess?
