I just changed the water pump and fan clutch on my 2002 trailblazer. I had to of course drain the coolant. I was reading in the book and it told me I needed to open the coolant bleeder hose. I looked everywhere and couldn't find it. Finally after getting completely frustrated I called the Chevy dealer to ask where it was. He said there is nothing to worry about that it will "burp" itself. Sure enough .. I drove it for about 10 minutes .. allowed it to cool a bit .. opened the radiator cap and filled up the radiator. Hope this helps!
there should be a air valve on the engine that you can bleed the bubbles out of the cooling system.
If the cooling system is in good working order the system will bleed the air out itself. If the system has a leak anywhere no matter how small the system will never bleed the air out.
Engine cooling system is not a closed system you can't remove the air.
Cut it's throat!
It is a brass fitting on the top of the thermostat housing.
There is no reason to ever bleed a cooling system.
Any time you flush out the cooling system you need to bleed the cooling system.
How do you bleed the cooling system of a 1988 acura legend? Is there a bleeding screw and where is it located?
It is self bleeding, if you are having trouble with air in the cooling system, it may be as simple as replacing the radiator cap or as bad as a bad head gasket and or a cracked head.
NO!!!!!
my o6 chevy impala is lighting up on the dash that the engine is hot but the gauge is saying its cold what is wrong and how can i fix it?
Air in the system. Bleed the system. Defective thermostat, clogged radiator, defective cooling fan or fan clutch.
