Subject: Re: [Ferrari] 328 radiator bleeding

I have never worked on a 328 but it should not be that different from the
GT4. Park level or sloping down a degree or two. Start the car cold, remove
the overflow tank cap, open the front radiator bleed screw, let her warm up.
I use a paper cup with a hole in it slid over the bleed screw pipe not to
make a mess, keep adding 50/50 coolant I use distilled water (of course)
until the water comes out the bleed hole. Screw it shut & put the cap on.
You may have a little overflow on your driveway later as the system sees its
max it sometime spits out some through the overflow coolant tube. You may
want to remove the screw first and make sure the holes are not blocked.  

Good Luck

Rob
