VR6Gill 1 Posted August 29, 2010 Report Share Posted August 29, 2010 Hello,Just need some advise on how to bleed / get water back into the system without air locks and problems once all of the pipes are fitted.Or do i just need to keep pouring water into the expansion tank and leave the cap off with the engine running until the fans kick in?Also how much coolant to water do I put in?Thanks in advance,Gill.
