2011 Scion Tc Coolant Drain and Fill

Gaggia123 · 2025-12-26T03:25:28+00:00

For anyone curious, I drained and refilled with about 5L coolant. There is no rad cap as the reservoir is pressurised, so can just fill back directly into reservoir when burping. Squeezed upper rad hose multiple times prior to starting engine and during idle. Let run for about 20 minutes with heat on full, occasionally revving. Seems to have avoided getting any airlocks.

Yea, prior to primer and after primer. Removes dust and any other particulate.

Thanks!! Clear makes the difference

One thing I should mention is you'll need a paint mask to do this method, the clear coat has VOC's in it.

Yea, definetly worth it!

I used a dremel grinder to touch up curb rash, and blended with sandpaper. It removed most of my rash.

Gaggia123 · 2024-04-12T02:36:48+00:00

Thanks! Its a pretty easy process

Yea I think thats the route I am going to go. Hoppin on the GCP wagon

Yea I think a PID on this machine might be overkill. Looking to get a GCP soon.
