just over 3/4 on the gauge after a warm run or having been left on tickover on the drive for quite a while.
all though they do vary
Fan switch is on the rad behind the lower grill and can have corrosion to the electrical conections cost 6-10 squids to replace if your a diyer unbolt and pop in new very quickly and you should loose next to no coolant
then bleed at the top left on the rad (13mm bolt top)and top up header tank at rear probably less than 100ml if the swapover was fast
regards doug :ok
