Subject:      Replacement of coolant
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii


I thought I would install GOWESTY' s coolant hose repair kit by myself before we head out to Northwestern Canada in a few weeks.  Reading my Bentley I got concerned on wether I can accomplish this work in the current weather here in Vermont.
I work behind my barn, ground is somewhat still frozen /muddy so I can't jack the our Westy up. This would make it a lot easier to install the kit.
When draining the coolant I didn't want to lose any on the pasture. Is there a safe and easy way to do this. How can I be sure that no coolant will get on the ground from me spilling it.
Any thoughts would be great and helpful.
I also have the GOWESTY bike pump for the coolant air problem and to check for leaks which I have a small one at the rear heater. No surprise 
Thanks,
