There are two air bleed valves on this model. One is located on the thermostat housing and it is a small brass screw with a screwdriver slot and ridged edges. The second is located on the coolant bypass tube. It is the black metal tube that runs along the valve cover from the water pum to underneath the intake body. It is about the size of a pack of life savers and stands vertically. It has a brass screw at the top and is (I believe) an 8mm. This is not slotted and is an octagon.
If you are having any problem with the heat regulation such as losing water and a problem with a varying temp that climbs and drops or just climbs. There is a known problem with the lower intake manifold valve cover gasket. that can let coolant leak out slowly. There is anew gasket kit that is available that corrects this problem.
