To find it, you'll need to look underneath the vehicle:
* Locate the engine block: This is the large metal part of the engine.
* Look for the lower radiator hose: Follow the lower radiator hose down; the drain plug is often near this area, but *not* directly on the radiator itself.
* Look for a threaded plug: The coolant drain plug is usually a relatively small, threaded plug on the engine block, often near the lowest point of the engine. It might be made of metal (often brass or steel) and will likely be close to the lower radiator hose connection.
Important Considerations:
* Consult a repair manual: A repair manual specific to your 1999 Chrysler Town & Country (with the correct engine size) will show the exact location with a diagram. This is the most reliable method.
* Safety first: Always let the engine cool completely before attempting to drain the coolant. The coolant will be hot and under pressure. Wear appropriate safety gear, including gloves.
Because of the variability in the exact location, relying solely on a general description is risky. Using a repair manual is strongly recommended.
