then look up literature, greenstar 30Si, installation and service instructions. or email me and Ill send you a copy.

Your looking for a filler loop, or a Tbar key if fitted as an extra.

If it's not a cheap & nasty rad you can put it back in place & connect tails, then (almost) fill the rad from the top using a funnel & piece of hose or suitable old fitting; then wou will have very little to bleed.
