on saturday, im hopefully (pending getting the two connecting pipes) going to fit a new matrix and plumb it back up.

itys currently bypassing the matrix completely.

it will be a struggle removing all the dash etc, but will hopefully be worth it. any tips on dash removal?


When i put in the new matrix, and then connect it back to the engine, what is the best way to do this?

when i uplug the bypassing tube, coolant is going to go everywhere, but when i plug the matrix back in wont this automatically cause a air lock?

is it possible to test its working while all the dash is out? as i wouldnt want to put it back together to find it not working!

 

 

how would you plumb the matrix back in, just plumb it in and leave the top off the header tank?
