Burping

scruffboy · 04-11-2007, 07:03 PM

If the weather is nice this weekend I'd like to try to burp my car. I definitely hear water gurgling in the dash. Mr.Nickleye used ramps but I liked Supragirls poor mans solution of a steep hill. Can I drain the coolant out before I get to the hill, I don't want to do that in front of some strangers house. I have a really steep hill 2 short blocks from my house, which should definitely put the core below the rad cap. So I take the cap off and idle for 20 minutes. What exactly am I looking to see happen? How will I know when I'm done? Should I be pouring coolant in as this is happening? Any tips or tricks of the trade would be very welcome.

Thanks Guys and Gals
