Hi @dougs57198,

What is the year and engine of the vehicle?

2003 std 5.7 base coupe with 1/4 turn white plastic valve which a sq driver just spins and valve does not open or come outwards. I have done it before OK a few years ago.

Not sure if access is easy but can you use a pair of multigrips and try pulling the drain cock out as you're turning it?

will give it a try, but now getting cold and I'm likely to delay for a while. Thanks for replies.

Those valve are generally one piece and soldered into the radiator. If you are lucky, there may be a not on it and you can remove the valve itself and replace it. Not likely.
