When I replaced my radiator fluid (green) to the new blue version, I flushed the system with distilled water. Very easy to do but took me awhile to flush the old stuff out.

AP2 is the same.

Dont follow the book, you'll be sorry. Follow my post above.

2 gallons will be enough. you'll have a little left over.

Assuming I'm looking at the right bolt on the engine block(bleeder), is there any way to get a wrench onto it without rsising the car? It would appear that removing the oil filter would allow me to do this bleed from under the hood. Is this correct or am I daydreaming? or maybe I'm looking at the wrong bolt?

Billman,

When I'm warming up my ap2, do I go all they way to 8 bars + 1 min?

Sorry to bump an old post but these were the best instructions I could find on bleeding the s2k. Quick question Billman, when you say "squeeze top hose", which hose are you referring to?
