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.
If you don't mind my drive-by question , how often are we supposed to drain and refill the coolant with the 2300? Is it by mileage, time or both? Thanks in advance.
