Hi guys,
I'm trying to change the coolant on my 1996 VS commodore v6 wagon. I've flushed it, but am having trouble refilling. I've only got about 3.5 L into it, but now the level is at the top of the radiator cap, so I can't get anymore in.
I've now taken the top off the engine, found the little bleeding screw above the top radiator hose, and opened that up. The level drops a little bit, then fluid comes out.
So ... now what? Close it all up, run it for 5 minutes, and hope it doesn't overheat, and then if i'm lucky the level will be down enough to add the rest of the 12 L?
any advice greatly appreciated! I don't really know what I'm doing with cars.
cheers,
Charlie
