Default Coolant

Friends,


How do I bleed the entire cooling system ?

Is there a nut in the radiator that I can unscrew to flush all water out?

Also how much coolant do I add to the empty system? Is there a ratio in the mix? I don't know how many litres the system takes thus need help.

Thanks


Syed

There is a drain on the bottom of radiator (blue I believe). To comletely drain block there are 2 drains on the side of block, 1 on passenger and other on driver side. I use a 50/50 mix for my cars. Make sure the anti freese is phosphate free and use distilled water. I cannot remember total amount needed, but I usually mix up 4 gallons and do other cars also. Hope this helps.

I learned the hard way ($$$$$) about using ONLY distiled water with the coolant.
