    When refilling, the coolant supply should be above the level of the filler neck. According to BMW manual.

    Hi James, thank you for the video, please, one question, I did the procedure yesterday with the same tool. When you are in the introducing liquid phase, Do you open the tool valve to the maximum or just a little? Does the speed of introducing liquid matter?. Also, In my case with the same starting pressure and preloaded tube the pressure decrease until 0. I dont understand why this is happening after following your instructions step by step. The final result was good though as the fan cycle correctly...Thanks a lot!!

    Hi what’s the OD of that rubber bung for the rad filler hole? It looks bigger than my 93 triumph tiger rad hole.

    Jim, just use a tripod, wide angle and if you need a close up then bring the camera to the subject,,,As for editing, from a viewers point of view...Errr....there is a good saying ..." when he speaks, listen, because what he states is golden" So just clip the really bad stuff, let the viewers use the fast forward button...Thats what its there for....Sometimes you dont know it but you share a golden nugget ( for us ) but its run of the mill for you ...So lets have an hour or two, Listen and he will enlighten and for gods sake Enable Monetization

    I bought this vacuum purge tool, but the tool air fitting does not connect to my air line connector because the fitting is different from what we have here in California. I am trying to find the air fitting connector part # to be able to used the vacuum purge tool. Can someone help me finding out the part number?

    Amusingly at 6:01/2 when you're talking about "blowing off" there's a suspicious sound which is well timed 😂😉Turn up your volume!

    Lovely bike, K1300R or S could be next up for me. Don't think engine failure is common, was the owner just unlucky?
    Quick question on the tool, could it be used to evacuate a full system? Been eyeing up one oft geese for a while now and either the Laser or Sealey offerings are quite reasonable priced!

      +James Wright-Roberts Wow how do you think they wore out oil starvation? Nice video btw I never knew this tool existed I've only seen those funky funnel type things which fit on the rad cap mainly for cars.

      The coolant used was MOTUL MOTOCOOL EXPERT, This is the correct coolant for this engine. The colour causes confusion 😕

    “This is turning into a how to....”
    Making a video then uploading to a media format is either to show another if limited knowledge/information or one is narcissistic and wants a spot light on them that draws public attention... 🧐
