Default After turbo swap can't seem to bleed coolant system. Followed bentley procedure
and still doesn't seem to be circulating coolant. Heater blows cold air. Coolant just isn't getting around. Any ideas?

Default Try taking something off high in the system like the green coolant temp sensor.
I don't know what the bentley procedure is so I'm just guessing.

Lower your car down on the ground: You prolly have the front up on jackstands or ramps.
