Z1 Coolant bleeder port
Have any of you guys replaced the plastic union on the heater hoses with this? Seems like a good upgrade to help bleed the coolant system for those of us that don’t have an airlift.

Does it work well as a bleeder? Doesn't seem to be the highest point in the system which is the cap and Nissan's procedure for burping.

I bought it just in case I was having trouble bleeding the system. I flushed the system today and didnt need to open it, there is peace of mind having a metal union though since my heater hose cracked at the plastic part it replaced.
