That's it and it's simple. Pump it up and set it down
on the block. Other cars with cable accuated systems
need to be disconnected and wedged open. BTW, I use
the Prestone flush tee. I can connect it easily in
line with the afterrun pump. Just DON'T run cold
water through a warm/hot block while shut off! I do
it with the car running and have been for 20+ yrs.
without damage.
