Re: (BLK_TEG_007)
That's right. To bleed the cooling system, let the engine cool, then push the heater lever to full heat. Turning on the heater blower is unnecessary. Top off the coolant level in the radiator and reservoir. Put the radiator cap on loosely. Let the engine idle until the radiator fan turns ON at least twice. Again top off radiator and reservoir if necessary, and tighten radiator cap. Done.

The heater lever on the dash - not the blower lever.
