    Mixing coolant in block, is it a big risk ?

    Thanks, when I take off the bleed screw and let the engine run at 1500 revs do I need to keep the expansion cap on or off. And do I just keep filling as normal until water escapes the bleed screw hole

    Mixing coolant in block, is it a big risk ?

    I've only managed to get around 6 litres in my d2 td5 after flushing and draining by removing the bottom hose. I've also raised the expansion tank and filled until coolant came out of the bleed screw. And I added about a pint more after a short run around. Is there a particular reason why it's...

    How to remove all old coolant

    Ahh right. I tried to drain the other day by the drain plug but it didn't work and completely sheared off. I'm now going to undo the bottom pipe as it's meant to be easier that way. I'm not 100% certain where it's located. Which pipe are they referring to please mate

    How to remove all old coolant

    My heater matrix is not gurgling. What do you mean by don't empty everything ? I'm going to fill with plain water and let the engine run for 10 minutes to circulate the old fluid that's in the block. Then I'm going to undo the pipe on the radiator to empty it all. I'll do this a few times to...
