If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there

There is a drain plug at the bottom of the radiator.
Undo it with the rad cap off. (make sure the fluid doesn't spill on the ground as doggies and hedgehogs will drink it and die.) [So will cats, but I don't like them much]
Tighten, and refill, run engine until hot.
Undo and drain.
Repeat until water is clear.
This time add antifreeze, and the job is done.
I used red, as it lasts for a few years, probably damages japanese seals though...
