its good to be on the nervous side. things are most dangerous for sophomore types dat think they know wat they're doing and fak up. those are usually da kids dat work at them jiffy lubes and such.

Well hopefully this manual helps me. $100 for full radiator hose swap from Z1. I'm tempted.

I now know what burping the coolant means!! One a 50/50 blend is added, turn the car on and blast the heat. With the funnel and coolant still in the funnel, it should burp out bubbles being flushed from the hoses.

but i dont like the smell of burnt coolant and didnt feel like washing the engine bay after the engine was cold again so did not use the air release valve. it took a good 45min to burp the system. |

It's only $100 and it's the coolness factor. That's literally it. And spending the money will force me to eventually do the install myself.

a lot of folks use the pump dat pressurizes from the reservoir side. some just use gravity.. meaning no tools, just loosen the nipple and allow brake fluid to slowly drain out while u add new fluid. it works but will take a very long time to do.. and i worry the new fluid will absorb too much moisture while u have the cap off. |
