How do you purge the air trapped in 2point5 Liter engine of 98 Outback after refilling a drained radiator?
YFC
there are two separate fittings (they look like grease fittings) located in the cooling system near the top of the engine (shouldn't have to dig to find). loosen both fittings and start vehicle. While the vehicle is running watch fittings, when you get a steady stream of coolant from both fittings tighten them down and your good to go. If after doing this the problem occurs again you've got a leak and need to take it to a garage immediately.
AnswerI can't find any grease fitting-like bleeder valves on the top of this boxer engine. Can you give me more description and location info? What kind of a wrench does it take to loosen them? Answereven easier...passenger side/top of the radiator is a Philips head looking plug...remove the plug and fill the radiator/engine via this..It's a little hole, but the purpose is to slowly add antifreeze so that the system burps the entire time...takes about 10 minutes to fill it.

Do you need to drain the central heating system to move a raidiator?
No, if there are valves so the radiator can be isolated only the radiator needs to be drained along with the location it is being moved to. If no valves are present you would only need to drain to a point below the radiator in question, so it is empty but the rest of the system can stay full. When refilling, unless it is steam the whole system will need to be bled of air.

Do you fill your radiator from your expansion tank in your 2002 ford focus?
Unless I have drained the block and radiator, I have filled the radiator from my expansion tank in every vehicle I ever had. If you have drained your radiator and it is cold, take off the cap and fill it that way. If you have drained the engine block and have not change your thermostat, you will need to keep filling your expansion tank until everything is filled back up. I recommend changing your thermostat.
