KiNK43 Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Gonna have a look through my build photos. One thing I noticed when I built mine it almost fits upside down. You defo got it on the right way. And the dowel in the block/head isn't chewed up is it? If had a deck or skim job may have been pulled with pliers and not sitting correctly now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KiNK43 Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 (edited) Have you took it for a drive?? They are renowned for being a bitch to bleed. After getting it about there, I used to find just going for a drive and getting some revs going should push any air back to the rad.
