OK, I have read the previous post, but just to check...
Engine cold, take of expansion tank cap, jack car up remove plastic engine cover (on the bottom). The bottom radiator hose will have a plastic clip holding the pipe to the rad, squeeze the two tabs together (is this like the air intake pipe kind of clip?). Catch the liquid in an oil drain can - (6 litres?).
??? put the hose pipe in the expansion tank and run until the water is clear????
Premix the paraflu up 50% paraflu with 50% demineralised water??
Reattach the pipe and refill expansion tank slowly, squeezing as many rubber pipes as I can get my hands on until expansion tank shows to the full mark. Replace cap and start the engine. Leave to idle for a few minutes watching the level - what if the level goes below min - do I stop the car, remove the cap and fill up to the limit again???? idle with light revs until the fan kicks in. Leave to cool then refill.
Any confirmation, changes???
