I'm just wondering what causes this water to rise and fall in the video below. I open the bleeder on the heat exchanger while filling it with water. So I know thats full of water. Is this normal operation? Or is there still air in there.
Water pump is wired to run constantly. The car is not running in this video, you are hearing the fans running. I forgot to shut them down.  Thanks guys, DEF --------------------  I will return one day. |

looks normal to me. the water will rise and fall based on the speed of your pump. any changes in idle, will make the pump run slightly faster/slower, causing the water to go up and down. just like when you take your radiator cap off, and rev the engine.
