is that normal? if i look into the radiator whit the car ideling i can see water squart out of the top hole where the line comes in but it only sprays out about every 2-3 seconds not a steady stream, but if i hit the throtle i will get a steady stream comming out

is that what i should exspect or is there a posable problem?

 

Make sure the thermostat is open, it always works with me. Make sure it is atleast at 180* and open the lower bleeder first. It sounds like you just have a lot of air in yours. My car is the same way, just keep it open, eventually coolant will come out. Then open the top and you are done.

I am assuming the bottom bleeder is not "bled," so that is probably why it is not steadily coming out.

 

when ever i open the bottom bleeder coolant always flows out with no air pockets.

BUT i didnt have both of them open at the same time when i did that test above, should i have both open at the same time?

 

An operating system must be bled when there is pressure in the system. If you had the cap off, you need to give it time to pressurize.

 

so i should start her up bring her to temp (about 170 -180)
then open the blledr screws?

both at the same time or one at a time or does it matter?


How do i protect the opti form the water? last time i did it with the car running i was spuddering around for 2 days LOL
