mark, yeah, I did say water a few times didn't I....no, I'm all good on the
coolant mixture, got that coolant at about 60/40 baby!

I'm gathering from alot of other folks that the preferred location to bleed
air is the top of the radiator.....the highest point.  Makes a whole lotta
sense.  If I had a Bentley I would know that, unfortunately I have not been
able to afford it up to this point.  Soon though, soon....another couple of
weeks and I'll have the dough to get one.  Thanks everyone for putting up
with questions that could be answered by Bentley like the best way to bleed
coolant.  Everyone in the archives pretty much just says "bleed the coolant"
and Bentley and I couldn't get a handle on the exact process.

Thanks again, you Volks are the bomb!

You repeatedly use the word "water" in your post.
