 bloody Ford & their pain in the a** fittings.
Trying to flush coolant & cannot get bottom hose off cause its got a weird clamp on it! So do I need a special tool or what? The clamp has no blade screwdriver head or hex,its just a perfect round hole????????  Someone????????????????????????????????

Yeah need to pull the cap off with vice grips, the ba radiators have a drain plug on the left hand lower side of them,so you can undo that and flush away!! ...Vito.

they do it because they originally have another nut on them which snaps off at the required tension, thus ensuring they are always tight enough without being too tight,
