No need to drain the coolant unless you just want to change it while your in there. You will only lose a small amount when pulling the intake (no coolant in the intake when engine is off and cool).

No kidding?

Well, when I go to disconnect the 2-3 hoses that connect to the intake manifold, how much will I be pouring all over?

If I dont have to drain it, i'll save myself quite a bit of time.
But at the same time, if I'm in my garage, I dont want to lose a half gallon of coolant all over/pour it all over my engine.
