How do you change antifreeze in a 96 olds cutlass?
First, remove the radiator cap and start the engine.The engine should be warm enough for the thermostat to open. (The fluid can be seen to circulate once the thermostat opens), Be careful of the now hot fluid that it will not burn you. There is most likely a radiator plug at the bottom of the radiator but if not, remove the bottom radiator hose and allow the fluid to drain out. If you want to flush the system you could refill with plain water (close the drain plug) and allow to circulate for a few minutes then redrain. There are commercial products for flushing the system readily available. Once emptied (and flushed), close the plug or reattach the bottom hose and fill with the appropriate mix of antifreeze and water. Read on the antifreeze container for the dilution ratio for the desired low temperature protection.
How do you unclog a radiator so the water will come out without taking it to a shop?
I'm not really sure what you mean but if you need to drain it and the tap on the bottom is stuck, undo the clamp on the lower hose and drain it into a pan. If you meant the core is clogged, you are pretty much out of luck. Try an autoparts store for radiator cleaning solution or mix 50/50 water and CLR. Do not leave this mix in there long because antifreeze is what lubricates the water pump and you will eventually burn it up by running anything else but antifreeze.
