#19: Re: How do I bleed this - radiator Author: Lee, Location: EnglandPosted: Mon May 02, 2011 4:51 pm ---- If you're changing the coolant, course you need to open the bleed screws to let the air out of it.
Think of you radiators at home, you bleed them...dont you

#22: Re: How do I bleed this - radiator Author: qwert, Location: ukPosted: Wed May 04, 2011 5:38 am ---- hi. I am hoping to do this on my 206 SW 2 litre TD this weekend. So would i just remove the bottom pipe, let all the water run out. Then fill it back up, leave the cap off the water tank, then start the car and let it get hot and it would bleed itself?
Thank you

You can bleed most of the system without even switching the engine on.
