i have just flushed out the rad on my s1 an was wondering if i have 2 bleed it now once i fill it up again?if so how do i bleed it?

 

Take the top hose off the thermostat housing.

 

Ive always left the cap of the header tank whilst the engine is running for a bit with the heater on full speed on hot. It circulates all the water and lets the air out the top.

Fords dont have the bleed screw like some other makes as far as i know

 

It bleeds automatically.

 

how does it bleed automatically if you just fill it up and screw the cap back on. the air need somewhere to go as it heats up and expands

 

The small hose from the thermostat housing takes air to teh expansion tank, and the cap will went air both ways even when closed after a threshold pressure.

 

thanks guys i'll get straight it

 

i think there is a bleed valve on the efi head...not sure......

 

There may well be but from the description he's running a series one MFi. Unless its been converted to efi.
