I noticed the bolt that came on my replacement radiator was simply just a bolt. Not cut with slot like the OEM was. I couldn't find the OEM one of course after installing the new radiator so I simply cut a slot into the new bolt. It does bleed much easier with the slot cut than just using an straight bolt!!
