Got the CA H/E Installed!

So I got everything in and the hoses connected up yesterday. As you guys said, it just took some aggervation to get it on there. i have a question though, do i need to mess with the little valve on the bottom of the CA H/E? i started my car up and kept adding coolant until it was full, but i'm unsure weather or not i should mess with that valve. Thanks.

nah you don't have to mess with the valve, that's just to drain it out. To bleed it you need to run it til the fluid goes down and keep topping it off. It takes longer to bleed the system then it does to install everything

Area, what do you do to bleed your coolant system? i just let it run and you can see the bubbles come up and the coolant level go down.. is that all i need to do?

Technically, you can do it that way. Area has another way of his own though, as most people do it their own way.

i just set up hpt originally to run the pump as soon as the key is turned on. so i filled it, turned the pump on, kept filling untill i didn't hear any air being forced through. if your garage is quiet enough, you can hear it.

just let it sit and idle for a while Jr... that's all Steve and I did when we hooked up his Cobra... it'll all work itself through.
