Dont bother to pull the head because there is an oily film in the top of the rad.,unless you like doing needless work.Water pumps are usually overgreased.I give my WP less than 1/4 of one pump on the rear bushing & the rest of the pump stroke in the front brg every 1,000 miles.Take a turkey baster & suck out the oil scum.You will see that there is very little in the top of the rad.
