Ive read there is a bleeder screw on the bottom of radiator. So to drain, i take it i need to remove the front under carriage plastic guard attached to the front fascia. I want to drain the coolant.

There is a petcock just to the driver's side of the radiator on a Gen III and IV...NOT a plug in the radiator itself as on a I and II. Easy to use...especially if you use a plastic downspout extension to catch the stream and the leak around the petcock. Watch the left sided block drain...starter right there. As I said in the other thread, call me for step by step tricks.

I pull the lower hose too.

Can be messy using the petcock and is definitely slower and less thorough.
