In the past I have often referred people to a posting entitled "Detailed Coolant Change Procedure" which has the link "http://www.ny-jbodies.org/library/maintenance/coolant.htm"

When I click on that link now I get no response. Any suggestions?

1) Drain coolant

2) new thermostat, because why not its $6 and the coolant is drained (replace hoses if theyre rotted, cracking or bulging also)

3) put new coolant in. heat cycle and top off the reservoir as needed.

Thats all i ever did. green coolant was my flavor of choice.

Not that complex. I used to raise the reservoir to fill it(unbolt and just pull it up so its above everything). Let it fill then start it and if it went down after starting, id top off before it got warm. Cap it and check it every couple drives for a couple days.
