Hi all.

Can I mix G12+ (already filled in)
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/G12-Febi-B...-/300705844924

with this one?

 

I have tried this and it did work and then the problem was back with no heat and the car overheating again. I have been going through fluid like crazy. Why does it work and hen stop wring and why does it work only some of the time?

 

I did this and it did work but only for a couple of days. Going through antifreeze like crazy and just had the rad changed. Last summer I had no air and when I discovered the rad leaking thought changing it and having it bled by the professionals I would have air and now all i have is cold air. no heat….again. frustrated.

 

I did a drain and fill, had no heat cause I didn't get all the air out.. Took it to the dealer and they got it out in like 15 minutes..

 

I've bled the system a four or five times and this what I usually do:

1. Drain .
2. Refill with the Lisle spill free funnel.
3. Start the car and rev it up a few times.
4. Check and squeeze the coolant hoses feel the temperature.
5. I do this for about 30-45 minutes
6. After I feel that the coolant is running through the engine.
7. I turn it off put the cap on
8. I then take it out for a nice spin with the heat blowing. It comes out freezing, but shortly after it gets hot. Monitoring the engine temp of course, but have never had a problem with it, since most of the air is trapped into the heater core.
9. Keep extra distilled water or coolant in the car and top off as needed.

I don't mess with the bleeder valve anymore near the firewall after having an OH **** moment when it broke and spilled coolant all over my body, face, and car. Luckily, it was only lukewarm, but I was running around my driveway screaming like a girl for a few minutes.

If you're car keep having problems try getting an engine block test from Autozone. It's like 25 bucks and looks for exhaust fumes in your coolant. If it changes colors then your head gasket most likely is shot.

How's your oil look?

 

So I need to bleed my coolant system but I don't have the actual bleeding screw I did a engine swap and they used clamps I believe to hold both ends of the value area together so whag do or can I do ?

 

Buy this and put it where that plastic coupling is.
