    when you put the car back together, the heater pipe on the cylinder head has to be off to allow air locks to secape whilet the cooling system is refilled. The hose is -if I rememebr correctly-(facing the ccar) on the right handside behind the inlet manifold.

    Once the system is filled, then the hose is replaced, and the usual moving the big hoses etc to get rid of any air lock before finally topping up and putting the cap back on. Did you do the head gasket your self? If you used a \haynes manual, this is all in it.
