    when i did my radiator replacement i ran the car for like 4 minutes with the heater all the way on and kept adding fluid with the cap off it would take in a little more. I also applied some pressure on the top tube and air bubbles came out i did it a few times then I filled up my resovoir closed it up took it for a 15 minutes dry and everything was done. Also when i filled it up i remember it took a little more than one gallon.
