Many Thanks!

Hello All,

Is this the H72 engine coolant drain bolt for the block?

I'm pointing to it with a screwdriver.

If not how do I get all of the coolant out?

Thanks Ree,

Yes, here in the US our options are limited.

I've already purchased the kit in the photos and a good pinto 2.0 engine.

The kit is from the UK as you noted. I just need a bunch of photos and advice.

Thanks All,

Hello all,

Has anyone ever installed a Pinto 2.0 engine using the available kits?

Hi All,

What is the psi of the oil pressure switch on a 1966 H72 engine?

Hi,

Please excuse me if this has been answered in the past.

We have a HP 1966 with H72 engine. It has blue coolant in it. I belive it was shipped with this in the radiator from France.

My question is can we use "green" coolant which here in the US is used in older cars including our DS ...

Thank you Joost,

We appreciate your advice!
