It's a long hose system--front to ABS and back to
front again, takes a lot of patience but if the mity
vac won't cut it use the speed bleeders.
There are two drain plugs, one on the pump (I think)
and one near the heads, both on pump side--flushing is
easy. I like the red stuff 'cause of the no
silicates--better for water pumps (especially the
cheapo honda thingy's)
The penis things have little metal cock-rings to hold
them in the too big holes--you must be missing them...
