Post by hogggman » Thu Feb 14, 2008 11:01 pm

hi,

my bongo is being collected and driven to doncaster(about 50 miles)for campervan conversion.it is unregistered and i haven`t driven it at all,so i`d like to empty/flush/refill/bleed the cooling system.can anyone point me toward the correct thread,or give me any tips?bear in mind that i haven`t even found out how to open the engine compartment yet(it`s parked at my mum`s and i haven`t touched it yet!)
thankyou

The members factsheets contain bleeding instructions, I will gladly help via p.m. if you need any help, or just ask here, plenty of willing members ready to help :wink: You need to remove the centre console to lift up the front seats to access the engine compartment, on fastener lives under the ashtray and the other inside the cubby box( if your bongo has one) then 3 clips to release each seat :wink:

I thank you
