Title: Change Coolant so....
Post by: SP_3.2 on 06 December 2010, 16:07:34

Changed the coolant  all fine, but how long should i run the car with  the cap off the coolant bottel with the heat on hi to make sure all the air is out of the system.

Thanks :y :
Steve.

Hello Steve, good to see you still have the Omega, is your 'son' ok.
Fill and bleed the system as best you can, then run for a few hours, top up when required.
best regards
