Volks- I've searched gerry for "coolant bleeding." etc. but can't find Dennis
Haynes(?) or others' EASY-to-do & follow instructions.  The system was
properly bled when Tug's heads were replaced more than 1 month ago.  Refill
level was fine after light blinked last nite, but this a.m. expansion tank
half full while refill tank still ok.  (No drips anywhere on ground.)  Since
I'm by myself, I need a one-person method, if possible.  I can find the
radiator bleeder valve & have the Bentley- but my ability is very basic!


I'd like to first assume bleeding air from system rather than heater core,
etc.  (Expansion tank/sensor looks healthy to me).
