Interesting. I'm curious, how does this product overcome the limited bleeding capacity of the thermostat hole?Please do all yourselves a favor and buy this ..

Makes filling and burping the coolant system on just about any motor easy and clean. :]

Makes no sense to me. The air pocket will be in the engine, not the rad right?
Yes, the problem is getting the air pocket out of the core and block. I could see how this would help with coolant loss out of the rad, but the rad simply must be the highest point of the system for proper bleeding. Air bubbles are lighter than water thus they float up when in water. That's why you want the highest point to be the rad which has an opening for the air to escape. However, this transaction of water and air must still go through the thermostat hole(s) on its way out.Makes no sense to me. The air pocket will be in the engine, not the rad right?
Are there any instances of this tool being used on 86-95 mustangs on YouTube? These cars are notorious for bleeding issues precisely due to the poor design which relies on that thermostat hole.Yes of course its in the engine but once that thermostat opens up the coolant will force the air out of the motor which this will help aid it. This is why people say "jack the front of the car up or put it on an incline" so this helps with that as well.
Check out you tube many people use this tool.

I think jacking is still necessary too, unless kOOksta is trying to say that because the unit is sealed on the rad that it effectively raises the rad's level as if it were jacked up. Am I understanding you kOOksta?To me it looks like a safe guard from spilling coolant all over the place whenever the t-stat opens and it will return that coolant once the air flows out instead of refilling yourself
I would still jack up the cars front end and use the same process.

Same engine, same basic cooling system.I've been reading the reviews of that funnel thing and everything I've heard is good a lotof mechanics swear by that thing even my hotrod buddy uses it and previously had success with a fox mustang....tthat's the same enging right just different setup to work with the sn95?
Bingo! Problems here too with the lever caps. Yet, I've had nothing but problems with the standard caps as well. That's why I switched to Motorcraft parts for things like that. I was getting dud parts out of the box with aftermarkets.Yes same engine same cooling design.
Mikestang you may have problems with that lever type cap. I have had two on my 95 and it was nothing but a problem maker.
I will always use a standard pressure cap. No need to use anything fancy when it works the way Ford designed it to.
Man, just jack the danged thing up, pour the water, and get that good lobster hand working. You guys are making this too hard!I've been reading the reviews of that funnel thing and everything I've heard is good a lotof mechanics swear by that thing even my hotrod buddy uses it and previously had success with a fox mustang....tthat's the same enging right just different setup to work with the sn95?
