Just re-filled the cooling system on the B following fitting a new Radiator. I've managed to get about 5 litres of 50/50 mix into the system, but it's supposed to take 6.2 according to the workshop manual. Even assuming that there was residual old coolant still in the system, I'd have thought I would be able to sqeeze closer to 6 litres in.
I've run the engine until warm although the temperature gauge won't get above about 1/4. Heater is working sort of - i.e. warm not hot. I've undone the bleed screw on top of the rad with the result that some air came out followed by coolant with no bubbles that I can see. My immediate thought is that there is more air somewhere...
Question is - does anyone know of any other bleed screws for the system apart from the one on top of the rad?
Thanks
