aus have a fully sealed system so no overflow

a std au efi engine turns on low fan i think at 95 to 100 and hi speed fans turn on at around 115 ive been told

i wired one up in a transit van ages ago and ran an aftermarket temp sender to turn fan on at 90 but think customer said it was better when fan came on later

so we fitted one around 100 or 105 i think new engines like to be run hot
especially for emissions

the reservoir bottle on aus has water always circulating thru it so its easier to bleed them u cant leave rad cap off fully if yr running a std au cooling system u just crack the screw on rad cap on the bottle

new engines run a more complex cooling system and hosing compared to old carby donks so i do sometimes run into problems when trying to getwater flowing right way or even when bleeding

if u want to bleed it find the highest point in the cooling system where u can remve a hose or let water out and get all the air out first
