Trying to drain the coolant from my 2007 STI and when I turn the tap on the radiator drain valve nothing comes out the pipe. If I turn it further (maybe 3 turns) coolant starts to leak from the tap itself.

Any idea how far the tap is supposed to turn before coolant comes out the pipe?

I might try poking something up the pipe to see if the valve is blocked.

Any ideas? I guess I might need to take off the undertray and undo the bottom hose if I can't get the drain valve to work.

Mine was poor. New rad didn't have one

Its better to take the bottom hose off. It drains better and sometimes the valves dont seal again.
