If you are talking about the gate valves to/from the front, on my buffalo they are on the firewall bulkhead in the engine compartment just to the left of center. On my MC8 they are on on the lower side of the engine, one of each side. Either way pretty obvious. Not sure what bus you have so this may help or be more useless information.

Thomas(and Kevin),

The 4106 valves are located on the rear axle side of the engine bulkhead, up close to the underside of the floor.

They're hard to get to without a pit or ramps. With ramps you almost have to sit up in the space between the axle and the bulkhead to reach them.

Tom, there is a bleed screw on the top left corner of the coil, some have a hole in it and it is a screw driver slot and when you open it you will hear air and the the water will flow. After you fire it all up recheck it and it will probably have a little more air. There is a valve that the driver can control the temp also. check it out

Oh and don't be surprised if it starts pissing coolant around the front of the bus, there may be a reason that the coolant lines were closed....Ask me how I know ;(
