Do that first and then you won't have that drain down and out the hose you pull off the heat exchanger. Once you get everything drained use a different color coolant so if you ever have a leak you'll know if its the Maggie or the coolant from your GM system. You won't be able to get all the coolant out of the Magnuson system as there will still be some in the heat exchanger and the blower bricks inside the 2300.

well thanks!,
it really only has 8500 miles so technically speaking mileage I don't need to replace it, but am only going off the GM preferred "every 5 years" of coolant replacement. I can probably get by another year, but always like to keep up on my maintenances. especially when its all modified like this is.
