Loop Draining Methods

[The Asgard]

Interested knowing how everyone drains their loop as this is the one area I have not managed to sort out properly?

Normally I empty the res and then pull one of the pipes off and then try to drain from there. Usually end up in a mess because of air locks where you think its drained and suddenly you get fluid going everywhere.

Well it looks like I'm no worse then you guys which is reassuring.

Good vid and its pretty much what I do. I think the problem I have is because my Rad sits at the top and mavity forces the fluid down through the pipes. Just when you think you have all the fluid out you take off another pipe and fluid starts flowing again. I have tried clamping the pipes when working on parts of the loop and that never works.
Need some sort of T at the bottom connected to a fill port. Like a sump plug.

Luckily I only have to change my fluid when I need to work on the loop.
