coolant top-off video


Recommended Posts

we should know by now that subarus are a little bit tricky ot bleed the air out of with topping off the cooling system.

 

as part of my video series, this one demonstrates what to expect in adding coolant to a subaru, and shows where mistakes can be made in thinking the system is full when it's not.

 

in this video the owner of trhe car(zanny dook) drove it after forgetting to put on the radiator cap and lost coolant. after topping it off and reinstalling the cap he had overheating issues, and some hillbilly told him to remove the thermostat, and he broke a housiong bolt after trying to put it back together. i go to fix his car after it sat for a day and demonstrate proper filling technique. i shot this in may of 2005

 

sometimes it takes a good 20 minutes to do it properly. 3 trains went by in this one....
