Subject:      Coolant system question (last, I hope)
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

Got the new flexible lines in today without dropping the gas tank ( will have local shop do gas line work very soon).  Everything seems pretty cool, and I will be filling with the blue stuff tomorrow.

I might have reversed the lines to the radiator, and I have two questions:
1. Does it matter which direction the flow to the radiator is? My guess is that it does.

2. Can anybody tell me how to get it correct?  Specifically, which of the two coolant lines at the engine compartment bleeder valve (top or bottom) goes to the radiator, and which is the return line.  Also, I need to know which of the connections at the radiator is supply and which is return. (one goes straight down, and one goes out to the side an inch or so above.)

Thanks to everyone for their help and forbearance during my project here.  I know I have used a lot of bandwidth.  Just trying to do things right.

Peter & Zippy.
