How do you add coolant to radiator in 1995 Chevy cavalier?
Open the radiator cap and pour coolant in. If you're filling an empty system, you'll want to leave the cap off, and run the engine for 30 minutes or so to 'burp' out any air in the system, then top your coolant off again.
After changing water pump how do you burp a 2000 caviler?
Fill the coolant, leave the cap off. Start the engine, turn the heat on high. Keep the engine revved to about 2000 RPMs (I use a hood prop for this). The engine will heat up, open up the thermostat, circulate the coolant, and burp out the air. You may have to repeat this process a couple times. Me, personally, I just use a vacuum refiller to refill the coolant, and it eliminates the need for burping. But they're very expensive and require an air compressor.

How do you burp a car coolant system?
Fill the vehicle with coolant and leave the filler cap off. Start the vehicle and keep adding fluid as the coolant level drops. When the motor is warm enough for the thermostat to open up you will see the coolant level drop quickly. Put in more coolant until it is full then shut off the motor and put the filler cap back on.
How would get an air bubble out of the radiator?
Don't worry about it, just close the lid and the automatic filler will prime it eventually. Most newer cars are self-purging. Keep coolant in the overflow tank and it will 'burp' out the extra air once the engine comes up to temperature. When it cools, the system will suck coolant out of the overflow tank to make up for the air that got 'burped' out. You'll know it is working because the coolant level in the overflow tank will drop.
How do you bleed or burp radiator in 2002 Dodge intrepid?
Mine is the es and even if you have the se it would be the same. There should be at the top of the engine about 4 inches away from the upper rad hose a small post that you need to loosen just a little. When the engine is turned on when its cooled down and the res cap is on, you need to loosen that bleed post just a little about half a turn or untill u see it spitting coolant a bit. The premiss is u watch this burp and sputter untill the coolant runs free then tighten down. Then check your level on coolant (add then repeat). you may need to drive around the block a couple times to get to operational lvl. Then allow to cool down and do the process over again. Start car loosen post, coolant runs free, then check lvl. It sux but thats what you do for a pressurized closed system.
