I didn't think the corrections important enough to point out. It would seem unnecessarily rude. One correction could be instructive. The use of red in text defeats it purpose when printed in black and white. It shows up as light gray. I removed all unnecessary text embellishments in order to make it more readable. Some embellishments are good. Too many cause distraction and readability issues. This comes from over 20 years of exposure to and working with professional technical writers. But each to their own if it is their own.

Complete enough to be useful as is.

Think that was in the thread also.

[QUOTE=Dynomite;166506]1. Eliminated Systems.
Eliminated systems with TB coolant removed LT5 Eliminated Systems.

Was in the thread as well.

That's nice. I simply disconnect the driver side hose on the TB and point it up. The air all leaves from there as you fill the fluid. refilling the reservoir after one engine use, after it cools down, requires very little coolant.

Thanks but I don't think I'll be bothering him with such things. It would be an unnecessary distraction for him.
