[DML] Re: Removing Heater Core Supply Line

[tobyp@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

Bill - This is something that many owners and mechanics don't seem to 
be aware of, and that is that the radiator *must* be bled as a 
separate step.  The air in that end of the car will rarely find its 
way out through the engine compartment self-bleeder.  And, as you 
hint in your post below, doing this task is not that much fun.  There 
was a thread some time ago about people's favorite flavors of 
antifreeze that they enjoyed (in the face) during the radiator bleed 
operation.  For this reason, check out part number K1017DP for the 
radiator, which is also part of our improved self bleeder kit K1012DP 
on the DPNW website.  Bleeding air out has never been so easy and 
clean!

Never realized how prone the stock configuration was to trap air, 
even with a vaunted self bleeder, until I helped two other owners 
before/after Pigeon Forge refill their systems. Radiator simply would 
not bleed unless you cracked that hose -- great fun with an OEM 
plastic nipple.
