[QUOTE="Anybodyhome, post: 452629, member: 19161"] Fins generally don't tell you anything unless you see rusting/corrosion/coolant residue around the bottom where there may be a leak. When you burp again, really try to get the front end at least 6-8" above the rear end on a sharp angle. And don't use your specialty funnel, just use a standard funnel. You might have to pick it up off the radiator cap lip a little to allow the funnel to drain, so just go slowly. When you get a burp, let the coolant settle a little and add a little more. Also, check the upper hose for flow when you cold start the engine, as I mentioned earlier. The upper hose should not start flowing until around 200-205, depending on the thermostat, and then it should warm up rather quickly, so don't hold on for long. Do you have the JScan app with an OBD II reader? Think I asked before, but don't remember. [/QUOTE]
