Then lock bleed bolt and run engine with rad cap off. Then tighten cap. Fill coolant tank to max line.

Engine not running and you just need to keep the bleed valve open until clear coolant comes out (no bubbles). Might need to top up the rad while doing that, might not. All depends how much air needs to be bled out.


EDIT: damn auto corrective predictive text changing bleed to heels Grrr...

Btw, don't overtighten the bleed valve when you tighten it back up again, pr it can shear off.
