Hi Folks, interesting thread this as we have also just acquired a Honda Insight that I'm currently trying to get running! (pictures to follow when I figure out how to host them)

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 |
That's a good tip and I could have used that last weekend!
I love Supra's, do you have any photo's of yours?
