Cooling system
I just rpalced the radiator, hoses etc. on this new to me NAF 289, the old radiator was full of crud and was dented badlly.
Question?--How or what do I do when refilling to prevent an airlock--what is the best method?
BTW I did back flush the engine before deciding to replace the radiator if that matters.
Rarely gets below freezing here and the car is in a heated garage.
I know enough to add distilled water and plan on adding "water wetter" or similar--would like to add some anti-freeze--How much?
Ratio?
Dumb question I know but .....
