Possible, but not likely anywhere in the US.

What if I did administer an enema? You've undoubtedly seen some of the stuff that can come out of a block...
It may be a $30 way to fill coolant, but it allows you to burp all of the air out of the system fairly easily. Paid for itself already IMO.

I hope no 80 Series neophyte’s read this comic strip. Before After ....
First apologies if you took offense at my joke.
You stated you were surprised that no one had mentioned that particular device, and your right, perhaps it is because it is not considered an essential piece of equipment for filling a radiator?
I own and run a garage business, and have never needed anything other than commonsense to fill a cooling system, and trust me, if the product was even remotely advantageous to the garage trade, I would have a rep crawling up my arse every other day trying to sell it to me, along with anti scuff door protectors and dashboard polish.

Commonly used by auto techs around here. I don't own one but I know guys who do.
Sounds like it.Good to hear that, I guess my 40 years in the trade is pretty much wasted.

Sounds like it.
Fun to see you jump in that one!

Gotta go with Dave on this one. In my over 50 years of wrenching on cars for both hobby and/or profit, I have never seen a need for anything more than a $1 plastic funnel, if even that. Most cars built in the last 30 years will self-burp the cooling system if the cap and overflow tank are in good working order.
Here in the USA, I would never buy pre-mixed coolant as D I water is very inexpensive: i.e. $0.88 per gallon at Walmart.
What?
I'll admit, it's amusing how butthurt you are that there are other mechanics that use different tools. It's amazing how offended you seem to be that other mechanics have different opinions. Its as if your 40 years of wasted time makes you the absolute authority on filling cooling systems and burping funnels are a personal insult. Lol
GOTCHA!
Dave puts away the hook and line and wanders off to bed, night night.
