Default purging cooling system
I can't find a reference for purging air out of the cooling system on my XK8 4.2L after replacing coolant. Pointers? THANKS!

I've found several references now to getting the air out of the cooling system. I just replaced the expansion tank so there was very little air anyway. Just squeezed the main hoses with the car level or slightly nose down and topped up fluid. So far all is well.
