What you think? lol ya its the res. it will drink it (Don't use pink antifreeze)(Gasket Muncher)

If its reused rad from wreaker use brakeclean and spray in tranny cooler line inputs on rad and chase out with air. might just save your tranny

You can also pour alot through the upper radiator hose to partialy fill the rad. Other wise it is timely to fill via the resivoir.
You will probly need to purge the cooling system.
Bleeder is on top of th ewater pump housing, brass fittings nortoriously prone to break off.
Might spray a little lube around the fittings threads.

it is a dealer part, but you can find simular fittings at a hardware that carries brass fittings.
