I sent a PM to Martin earlier today, here's his reply.

I have been trying to get ahold of David all day, he left me a message. He said someone on your forums said I was selling my company... that is Horespower Solutions that is for sale, I am still around. LOL

If you are looking in the new year some time that will be fine. My Five year lease is up at the end of December, so I will be moved into a new place by then, so make sure you guys get the new address. LOL

Martin

I thought he said somewhere in the SE of town, but I could be wrong. Pretty sure its in the south.

burp the core, with the engine running. loosen the heater hoses at the firewall. 1 at a time. put a hose pick in the top and spread the hose till coolant comes out. bleed each hose like that. help give air a way out.

theres an easy way to push air out of the core. Pull one heater hose of the core , then plug the hose off, pull the rad cap and put a pressure tester on and start pumping till you start to push some coolant out. Just a trick i've used on some stubern cooling systems that didn't want to bleed

If there was a big air lock in the core.....Wouldn't there be no heat at all??
