I tried cranking up the heater today and rocking the engine as Mat@Induktion suggested, but it didn't work.

My car has has enough air pressure in the coolant to make Old Faithful blow.

TIA.

Default there are pinholes in the heater hoses (i think they are the heater hoses)
that run through the rear firewall. I think there is a writeup somewhere around here.

Couldn't find it in the tech section. That's why I asked.

No, not sure I do. If you have a pic, that'd be great!
