08svt Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 I just finished putting new Heat Exchanger in my 08 GT500. I am wondering when the typical radaitor coolant is recommened to be done. If anyone has done it any special bleed procedures? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobraracing Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 I just installed mine this week, the best is straight water with water wetter for heat transfer but if the cold weather is a possibility, then go with the factory coolant only Fill the tank and start the car, the pump does not come on until the air intake temp rises though, I found it will cavitate and you have to shut down the car a few times to let the bubbles settle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sherri Leicht Posted February 19, 2012 Report Share Posted February 19, 2012 The intercooler pump should come on as soon as the engine starts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
