The worst part is getting the hands off of the clock, IIRC.
Two spoons, used as levers. (Bowls as fulcra.) This should

Yup. Two of the them if memory serves me correctly.
If you have basic soldering skills and the tools necessary to remove the
cluster, it's an easy and cheap fix. Be sure to go with 25WVDC caps for
replacements. Or maybe it was 50s. I just remember that the original caps are

Quick and dirty "prime" is to remove the pressure cap, squeeze the
upper radiator hose flat, then crimp the small vent line to the
expansion tank shut and release the upper hose. This will pull coolant
through the lower radiator hose and heater core back into the head.

Yes because using reply all will give sender 2 copies of same message.

then jam the hose on and final fill to the bottle.

I'm sure everything is clean -- When I replaced the radiator a couple of
weeks ago I cleaned everything I could.But i was thinking, with all
the stuff I did to the cooling system recently (new radiator, new Water

somewhere?
Sweet. Looks like they've done a nice jobs putting all this stuff together.
