I put in a new thermostat today (the old one was stuck
open). I followed the abbreviated procedure. I parked
the van on a downward slope (my driveway), took off
the expansion tank cap and opened the housing. I guess
I lost about 2 pints of coolant, not the 'cup'
described in some posts. After replacing the
thermostat, I filled the expansion tank and opened the
thermostat bleeder. Put the dash heat on full, did not
touch the rear heat (should I have?) and ran the
engine. The expansion tank sucked dry and the flashing
coolant light came on so I added more coolant.
Flashing light went off but coolant not falling in
expansion tank and no coolant coming out of thermostat
bleeder. Decided to call it a day. What to do next?
Will not be able to look at it again till Wednesday.
