Zetec cooling again..

Im plumbing my cooling system the same as the picture.

The little bleed pipe on the top of the rad, Am i correct in saying this should go back to the top of the expansion tank??

The tank im using has 2 small inlets at the top so its easy to do..

Yup that's how I'm doing mine - should be finished this weekend.

I'm also connecting it via a T-Piece to the top of the thermostat housing then into header tank

The small bleed pipe on the top of the rad can be blanked off with a small bolt. I just remove the bolt when filling to bleed the rad and replace once coolant flows out.
