Where is the drain valve located on the Baojun 310 radiator?

Baojun 310 radiator drain valve is located at the bottom of the radiator, where there is a drain valve. Baojun 310W radiator draining method: When the car engine is cooled, unscrew the radiator cap, open the radiator drain valve, and drain the antifreeze; insert a rubber hose connected to a water pipe into the radiator filler port; turn on the tap to allow a continuous flow of tap water through the engine cooling system; during the flushing operation, keep the engine idling and maintain the above operation until clean water flows out from the radiator. Car radiator location: The radiator is generally located behind the air conditioning condenser. Opening the engine compartment only reveals the upper cover of the radiator. Only by removing the front bumper cover can the radiator's position be clearly seen.
I remember when I changed the coolant in my Baojun 310, I located the radiator drain plug at the bottom right corner of the radiator near the front bumper. There's a small plastic plug that can be easily loosened with a wrench. Make sure the car is completely cooled down before operating, or the scalding hot liquid may spray out and cause burns—it's best to do it overnight. Use a clean bucket to catch the old coolant and avoid spilling it on the ground, as it contains chemicals harmful to the environment and must be disposed of at a recycling station. After completing the process, add new antifreeze in the correct dilution ratio—too concentrated or too diluted can corrode the engine. Start the engine afterward to purge air bubbles. I change it regularly myself, and the engine runs smoother while saving a bit of fuel. If it's your first attempt, wear gloves and safety glasses to avoid accidents, and check the coolant level for stability after refilling.
I've worked on quite a few Baojun 310 cars. The radiator drain plug is located at the bottom of the radiator, specifically a plug on the lower right side. It's somewhat concealed but not hard to find - just use a wrench to loosen it easily. Make sure the engine is cold before operating, otherwise hot pressure could cause injury or damage components. Collect the old coolant carefully during drainage - improper disposal is both environmentally harmful and illegal, so take it to professional recycling points. When refilling new coolant, ensure you select the correct type and mixing ratio - wrong mixtures can cause corrosion or overheating failures. For routine maintenance, owners should change antifreeze every two years to maintain efficiency. Address any issues promptly to prevent minor problems from becoming major troubles.
