Glenn, when the system cools, air will re-enter the system thru the
radiator cap - it is designed to do that Glenn Ashmore wrote: Well, it is brass with a high temp polyethylene float. It has to be mounted close to vertical to open. I was worried that when the engine cooled and the pressure dropped it would act as an anti-siphon valve and let air back into the system but after playing with it that does not seem to be a problem. I do believe however that after the system is purged it would be a good idea to close the outlet valve just in case and just open it when I am changing out the coolant. |
