Tonight I'm putting a new radiator in the 855t. The old one and intercooler are on the garage floor.

Haynes says fill it through the overflow tank, SLOWLY. I understand that the goal here is to not trap air in the system.

I'm thinking about filling the raditor through the upper hose spigot once it's in then put the hose on and continue filling through the tank. Is this advisable? Should I top up the overflow tank, let it settle then repeat?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I have a buyer insterested and he's waiting untill I'm finished to come see the car.

Thanks,
