coolant replacement-burping
I on the last of my routine maintenance jobs for my 4-108...replacing the coolant. I have flushed the system and about to refill with antifreeze. Anyone got any tips on an easy way to "burp" the air out?
Thanks, Bob

Re: coolant replacement-burping
Sure. Run the engine briefly, then top off. The air will gather at the top.
