Hi!  I don't see the radiator drain plug on my 98 V6 SOHC.  Do I need to
remove the black plastic shroud that covers the bottom of the radiator to
get to it?  The lower radiator hose looks accessible--can I use that to
drain the radiator instead.  Appreciate any advice.

You got it!  Just remove the 4 bolts that hold the black plastic shroud in
place and pull straight down.  There are 2 push clips, one on each side that
keep the shroud in place after you remove the bolts.  I recommend flushing
the heater core while your at it.
