    Alright i need some help guys/gals. I seem to have forgotten how we bled my coolant when i did my lim gaskets an my thermo had a leak so i had to pull it off an replace the gasket. So now i need your help. How do i bleed the coolant? I know it involves a sequence of the radiator cap the bleeder valve and running the engine i just dont remember how it went.

    I just left the radiator cap and the bleeder open. By the time the t-stat had opened and closed twice there was nothing but fluid coming out of the bleeder, so I closed it all up and called it a day. It's been on the road for 2 days now with no air bubbles

    Yup let the car heat all the way up with the heater on. Break open the bleeder (7mm) wait till only coolant comes out, top off the rad/ overflow tank then you are done.
