Hi all,

Recently I flushed my '87 diesel, but had a bit of trouble getting the air out.
I waited until the engine was hot, revved the engine up and filled it to
the top, but after a while, when I revved it down to idle, the coolant tank
would start to overflow.
So I let it flow and placed the cap back on.
I did a search in the message archive and I discovered that you're supposed
to put the cap back on when the engine is still revved up.

My question is this:
Isn't that bad for the coolant tank? I mean, when the engine is running
idle, isn't there too much coolant ? And if it gets pressed into the
overflow tank, does it get back into the cooling system?

I guess I have to purge it again tomorrow. Does anyone know the size of
wrench I need for the radiator valve, I'll need to buy one tomorrow...

Greetings,

Peter.
