1999 Volvo S70 Logo
Posted on May 28, 2009

I just changed the radiator and intercoolout on a 2000 volvo s70

And this may sound like a stupid question, but how do I fill these with coolant? There is no filler cap on either. I had to replace both due to an accident damaging both which drained the fuid from them I could put some in the reservoir but is that just a drop in the bucket considering the capacity is 2 gallons US

    there are factory air bleeds that must be opened during filling. If u do his wrong u will overheat the engine and may blow a head gasket.

What I used to do on the old 240's (same basic set-up) was to remove the thermostat and fill the antifreeze through the head. This ensured that the thermostat had enough fluid to operate properly.
