Default Flush Coolant After Using Bars Leaks???

Hi, I just used Bars Leak and now I am at the step where I have to drain the system and let it dry for 12-24 hours. My questions is this...How do I drain the block and entire system? Do I need to? I drained the radiator but this only removes 40%-45% of the coolant. Is there a drain plug on the bottom of the block?

What size of engine is your Altima 4 or 6 Cyl? There is a drain plug on the side of the cylinder block, but the plug are sealed and not easy to access. You could try running the engine for a couple of minutes with the radiator hose disconnected.
