[Vwdiesel] coolant questions

[LBaird119 at aol.com]

  To be sure the engine is FULL of coolant after finding your 
empty reservoir, pull the upper radiator hose from the radiator 
end.  Fill with coolant, reconnect the hose THEN fill the 
reservoir until full.  Start your car with the cap off and watch 
the return stream through the hole.  If it's a solid stream (rev 
the throttle up slightly if necessary) then you're good.  If it's 
just vapor or a combination of bubbles and coolant then you 
have a 90+% chance of a blown head gasket.
