Added a new radiator at the weekend, to a vented system which I had recently added new inhibitor. New rad is on top floor and I had laid on the pipework previously, so only a towel rail needed draining, and the expansion tank. Not wanting to lose the inhibitor in the expansion tank, I wanted to plug the outlet. Hunted around, and then hit on the idea of using the plug of silicone which sets in the nozzle of a silicone gun tube. Blew the plug out backwards with a compressed air can, and it worked perfectly.
