I've tried a few times to get it to push fluid through with no success. It is approximately level with the expansion tank so gravity is not my friend. It is fed via a tap in the nose section on the hot side of the rad input hose leading back to the core and coming back to the return side of the rad plumbing.
The two short, straight pieces in this pic are the connectors from the hard pipes to the rad:
I don't currently have any pics of the complete setup.
I've had the nose high, I've put a clamp on the return hose to try to force the flow through the core, I've used "surplus" revs to apply flow through the system. The only thing I am getting out is cold air as nothing is circulating through the core.
Would it be advisable to vent the system once it's up to pressure? Does anyone route their heater core directly to the water pump like normally configured?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Chris
