Anybody tried this? This came from the Ducati Spot list:
You dont need to take the air tube off or take the cap off. Just the side panels off.
Loosen the cap, take the drain plug out of the water pump, drain.
To refill, buy a one gallon weed spray tank, fill with 1/2 gallon of 50/50. Take the wand off, there should be an O ring on the end of the sprayer trigger that fits just right in the drain hole. Pump up your tank and fill your sys from the bottom up. Stop when fluid starts to come out the cap.
All the air was pushed out the top. If you want to tighten the cap before removing the sprayer, the vacuum will keep much 50/50 from leaking out.
I siphon out the overflow tank, and what is left over in the sprayer is just right to fill it 1/2 way.
