Refill the radiator with the engine running and the heater control on full hot, to avoid air in the system. Also flush & fill the coolant recovery tank with
50/50 mix.You may also want to have the front of the vehicle up on ramps or jackstands so air bubbles can migrate towards the upper radiator hose and radiator cap.
Also make sure the overflow tank is filled and the overflow tube to it is clear
thanks for the info

vacume???? What's vacume tool? Talk about being a 'retard'! Before you throw stones, it would be wise to learn to spell the words you use. Possibly you meant....vacuum?
Helpful posts are always appreciated. Hope you appreciate this one...

I think that spelling is a derivative of the way one of the guys at work spells it. "vaqume"
Somehow I doubt that.
