It can be filled to near the top and add a further 8" of height to the cooling system encouraging air to come out.



Either that or vacuum the cooling system when empty, then stick a hose from a modified rad cap into the coolant to suck it in
Awesome dude! Gotta replace the radiator on the Heep, I'm going to give that a shot
