    2002 grand prix radiator pep cock. Mine turned 1/4 rev and stopped and no coolant drained. Should it turn further or is the drain plugged?

    it is plugged it does not turn more than a quarter turn. Get a coat hanger if you can in there and see if you can loosen it up.

    I don't know if this may apply but when I did this a few week ago with my 98 it turns a 1/4 turn and then pulls out.

    Most people pull the lower hose, seems like that's an easier way to do it.

    ^^I realize a stock L36 is not as fast as the sticker implies, but this sticker has worked and it is still a hell of a lot of fun to drive considering it's a grocery sedan.
