Is there a preferred method for burping a goose? I have the rear end jacked up but I'm not sure if there is a better procedure... So far i've only gotten 2 gals of coolant in her...
Thanks,
MH

Answering my own question here. I lifted the back end about 18" in the air, found and opened the air bleeders under the rad cover... About 1 minute later cool juice was coming out of them... I got an additional 2 gals in there... Total coolant/distilled water volume was right at 4 gals...

Have you tried a vacuum filling device? It pulls a vacuum in the system then draws the coolant into the system. Works great and you won’t have any air bubbles.

Where would you put the vacuum & where would you fill from? Sounds logical if done right...

Go to YouTube and search for “vacuum coolant refiller”. There are lots of them for sale on Amazon. I recommend Pantera and Mangusta owners buy one with a vertical vacuum gauge.
@davidnunn thanks for the info, looks like the perfect solution.

It saves you from jacking the back end of the car up when you fill the cooling system and also ensures you’ll have no air bubbles in the system.
