Re: [DML] Re: Fan belt installation

[Farrar Hudkins <fhudkins@xxxxxxxxx>]

Unsolicited advice: Once you've installed your self-bleeder, keep a 
close eye on your coolant level. With an automatic air-bleeder 
installed, it's easy to forget about the possibility of a small, hidden, 
or otherwise hard-to-find coolant leak -- until, suddenly, you hear air 
hissing out of one of the coolant hoses behind you... which is what 
happened to me, once.
