[Supras] MK3 Cooling

[Aaron Hansen]

If you live in a warmer climate, then I would go 50% water 50% Water
Wetter.  Otherwise if you do use coolant, definitely go with the Toyota
Red.  As far as the issue you are describing, it sounds like you still have
air in the system.  I usually put my car on a pretty good incline then jack
up the front to get that extra little bit when I burp the system.  Not sure
what you did, but hope that helps...
