Radiator plug is a 'bayonet' style mount, push in quarter turn, push some more, 'nother quarter turn.

Should be just a couple pipe plugs at the bottom center on each side of the block. (just above the oil pan rail)

do NOT push hard. its all plastic. the in/out movement is pretty large, 3/4 - 1 inch. the turns are pretty modest. like Hey said, about 1/4 turn. apply a little vasoline to the o-rings.

He figured out that you need to unscrew THEN PULL to get it flowing. He wasn't doing the second part.
