Replacing radiator - need clarification on block flush
Hi all,
Just ordered the all-metal replacement from radiatorbarn.com. They have a note in there that reads;
"NOTE FOR 1994-2000 INTEGRA OWNERS: WHEN CHANGING RADIATOR, COMPLETE BLOCK FLUSH MUST BE PERFORMED AND ALL AIR BUBBLES REMOVED FROM COOLING SYSTEM FOR WARRANTY TO BE VALID"
Question: How to make sure this is completed properly?
Thanks,

.... i think they are implying that you drain the block of all coolant... but that makes little to no sense to do for a simple radiator change. as long as you make sure you let the car get to operating temp w/ the cap off.... then you shouldn't have a problem w/ bubbles
