    Expansion tank replacement question

    Do you have to flush the whole system to replace the expansion tank, and then rebleed? or is it just loosing the amount of coolant in the tank, then replacing the tank and rebleed?

    in other words, is it a time consuming job?

    thanks

      :agree:

      If you are careful you can actually lift it up above the level of the engine, clamp the incoming pipe, refit new tank and top up again...
