take off the plastic covers under the front of the engine. then you will see a small hose on the passnger side of the car that runs down from the lower radiator hose around the passenger side of the engine. simply use pliars to loosen the clamp and pull off that hose. make sur to have a bucket there, and the fluid won't drain good until you remove the radiator cap under the hood.

Either at the bottom or the rear lower section of radiator
How do you install a radiator in a 1998 ford contour?"
look at the bottom or rear of radiator
you can either pull the hose for it or you can usually just open the drain plug on the radiator
by Tigercadd:The drain plug is at the bottom of the radiator, passenger side facing the engine compartment. Im not a Big mechanic or anything but i know a few basics, not every car has a drain plug for the radiator, if it does, it will be on the bottom of the rad. if it doesnt a simple way to drain the coolant would be to disconect the bottom rad hose and let the coolant drain through thatI have looked at the manual and from what I can remember, on the Ford Contour, you have to remove the plastic splashboard underneath the front part of the car before you can see the radiator drain plug on a 1998 Ford Contour. I have not actually changed the radiator fluid on my Contour but I know you will have to remove the bolts that hold the splashboard on and remove the splashboard before you can see the radiator drainplug.
There is no radiator cap on a 1999 Ford Contour. The cap to the coolant overflow reservior is the only way to add something to the radiator.
The most effective way to drain a fiesta is to remove the lower radiator hose at the radiator end
There is no drain.
The thermostat on a 1997 Ford F-250 is located under the upper hose assembly in the radiator. To locate the thermostat, drain the radiator halfway and remove the hose at the top of the radiator.
