no, that is a cheap torque wrench, definitely NOT want you want to use!

 

home depot's is not long enough, you need to get this one from Lowe's

 

http://imgur.com/lB1sd5XI found my breaker bar, and i have a 17mm socket that fits the bolt

 

the six point socket is either this one or this one - not sure, not near my car at the moment

 

is the socket a six point?

 

that set up that you have in the pic should do the trick, if the bolt is not buggered up (rounded off)

 

How about the thermostat? Did you replace that as well when you bled it?

 

I just got the bolt off, put in some coolant to the top, turned car on and ran the heater. It started bubbling like crazy getting coolant everywhere

 

Well i ran out of coolant, it literally shot out like old faithful when i turned the car off. http://imgur.com/MaTk9jL It still isnt full from the bolt hole so im going to buy some more coolant from the store.

 

unless he has the real Kuzeh thermostat from the dealership on hand, he would likely be doing himself a downgrade by replacing it

 

make sure to use distilled water for the 50/50 mix if you want your radiator and heater core and water pump to last a long time!

 

Do i keep adding coolant until it stops going going down/bubbling?

 

Let the car cool off. Then add coolant. Squeeze the hose to burp out air. Reinstall fill bolt. Now fill the over flow tank to the cold line. Watch the tank over the next couple of drive cycles. Only fill the tank when its cold.

 

this is where that new Toyota radiator cap will pay off - the whole magic of LS400 self-bleeding depends on a very good condition or new cap!

 

Thanks for the help guys. Is this the fan fuse you are talking about, the pink one?
