The stat has opened and hose hot, just topped up a small amount of coolant the day after coolant change
Mike I am not saying that anybody should go out and spend money on bleeding equipment, I am confident to bleed the system without the pump, but when it was offered free of charge to use, I was curious to give it a try
It worked for me, speeded up the process on a very wet day
Mechanic friend who loaned it says he uses on all types of vehicles that need to be bled.
I agree that it is satisfying to do jobs for yourself, I check the level of coolant on a very regular basis - so too with the hoses etc.
