Thread: How 2, bleed radiator.

if the disco is similar to the Defender you should be able to drain via the bleed screw on the bottom hose.If you can disconnect the bottom hose all the better. Then flush by putting a low pressure hose in the expansion tank for a while.Reconnect hoses and remove top bleed screw, and then pour premixed colant in expansion tank until it runs out of the top screw.Replace screw and tank cap, turn heater on, not ac, and run, check for leaks.

and don't forget that the coolant is an OAT longlife. The genuine stuff is Caltex Longlife, (says carboxylate acid technology on the bottle) mixed 50/50 with pure or demineralised water, available from any Caltex depot. (It's the fluro orange stuff)

There is a refill procedure in COMMON THREADS

I've a 99 V8 disco and guess it would be the same. If you have access to a fax send me a PM (if not I could email then as well) and I'll fax over the pages from the RAVE over...

Thanks Guys, all looks good at the moment. Cd's on its way.
