I have a radiator without a radiator cap reservoir, and I am stumped on how to fill it with coolant after flushing the system and replacing some hoses and the fan.

Again I just need to know how to fill the radiator with coolant when it has no radiator cap to poor into.

There is a small plug on the top of the radiator on one of the tanks, remove the cap and fill it from there. There might be a bleeder on the top of the thermostat housing that will needs to be opened.

Please let us know what you find so it will help others.

Best, Ken
