I have a 2002 Jeep Liberty Sport with the V6 3.7 engine and would like to know how to change out the upper and lower radiator hoses and t-stat. I have been reading online and a little confused at the different posts.
When I drain the coolent from the bottom of the radiator does that get that out of the fill bottle toward back of engine compartment?
Do I just run water through the radiator from the upper hose inlet and let it drain out from bottom hose that is disconnected?
Replacing the thermostat looks easy (any gotcha's I need to be aware of?)
On the upper radiator hose there is an allen screw. Is that a bleeder screw I need to loosen when filling it back up?
When putting coolent back in, where do I fill it up at? From the bottle at the back engine compartment?
Do I fill the bottle up, then crank engine to run coolent through it?
What is the best way to put coolent back in this?
