A better way to drain coolant?

[vilant]

To get ready for my fuel injector change tomorrow, I decided to drain the coolant tonight. I've read how the coolant runs down the length of the drain (pan, piece, not sure what you call it) and thought to myself. Self, there has to a way to stop that, lol. I guess the best way would be to jack up the driver side so all the coolant just runs towards the drain hole. But, I have my car on jackstands and the tires removed. Wasn't putting the tires back on and dropping one side when I could do this.
First, I took a four footlong or so pieces of duct tape and overlapped them.

Then I trimmed it down to about an @8" long strip and cut an @2" tongue into it (don't ask for exact measurements, duct tape science is not exact, lol), like this.

Then I cleaned all around the drain plug so the tape would stick. I slowly placed the tongue under the drain hole and worked the tape with my finger and a screwdriver around the plug.

After I cracked open the drain I noticed alittle coolant coming down out of the drain hole. Oops, the tongue fell down so I stuffed a rag up the drain hole to hold the tongue up.

I vented the top radiator tank first, then after a few minutes(when I thought the coolant was out of the plenum), I put a rag under, then pulled the coolant air bleed hose off the plenum. Mine was stuck on there pretty good. I had to carefully twist it left, then right to get it off.

I stuck an old mortar pan I had under the length of the radiator just in case this didn't work. Actually had to use the same pan to catch dripping brake fluid from my truck brakes went out on me.

Most of you are probably laughing at this, but I worked PD well. Would of worked perfectly I think, if the tongue didn't fall down, before I stuffed the rag in there. Anyway, I think I made for a cleaner coolant fluid drain.
