Let me add--this is for topping off only. You fill from the back!

I used a wash bottle (squeezable plastic bottle with a little fill tip on the end--laboratory stuff). Works great. Can also be used to suck out coolant if necessary. I pulled enough out of the pressure tank to add my Water-wetter.

I just installed my new SA Radiator i bought from Bus Depot. Now Im ready to fill with coolant. I remember someone saying he filled up radiator with coolant thru the bleeder screw hole and/or the thermoswitch hole. Said that this way it gets most of air bubbles out before the doing the big bleed festival.

Does this work?

P.S. this South African VW radiator looks like a carbon copy of my 84'VW OEM radiator which costs more than twice as much new.
