Default Cleaned the radiator

I cleaned the rats nest out of my radiator last night, including the dead rat (for real).

How do you guys get all the grass out of the radiator? It would take hours to pickit all out.

I only found one bleed valve, is there two on the 96?

Will the air eventually get out?

I am running 201 at 80 degrees on the way to work today.

If you have an air compressor, that's the best thing you can do. If you don't have one, use a hose. :yesnod:

Bring it to a radiator place and have them dunk it, you also get the inside clean. Shouldn't cost to much.
