ekholm tunnel and anti-freeze

[maxco]

Hey guys needed a hand. I have a ekholm tunnel on my mm700. I was changing out the anti-freeze, and there is no bleed out valve on the rear. any words of wisdom on how best to get this full of anti- freeze again. thanks

i would raise up the frontend and fill with coolant. Start the sled up and it should burp itself and you will see the coolant level go down a bit. Refill as needed. If that dont work all the way, try tipping the sled side to side a few times. Run it and feel all the coolant lines to make sure they are all warm and no more air is trapped.
Also i see your in Colorado, i live in Denver. We should go ride sometime

i use a pick to bleed the coolant at the rear of the tunnel where the edge coolers meet the hose for the crossover tube or rear exchanger, whichever you equipped your sled with. just slide it between the hose and the aluminum fitting. front end high and rear low for starters, then reverse with the front down and the rear high if necessary for the air to escape.
