Some vehicle cooling systems will have a bleeder valve to get air out of coolant after adding new coolant and/or making repairs. There is no such thing as a bypass gasket, you have been misinformed, or correction has been poorly explained.

Coolant leaking from water neck in 2001 sebring 2.7L how to repair?

The water neck is plastic and will leak at the block. Most problem's from this water neck can be repaired by replacing the water neck (Expect to pay $ 60.00 for this item). Be sure to clean and remove old gasket material and silicone before installing the new water neck. You will also need to open the bleeder on top of the water neck to purge all air from the cooling system. Then tighten bleeder when air has been purged. If you are not mechanically inclined do not attempt this......

2002 impala 3.4 overheating water line air bleed after blead no air then after drive all steam no water at high idle water pressure out of bleeder slows down replaced water pump removed thermostat?

engine has 2 bleeders intended for filling cooling system only! they are not to be opened while engine is running or hot. the best method I've found for filling the cooling system on these is as follows: open the lowest bleeder first (the 1 near the throttle body). remove the radiator cap, fill very slowly until coolant flows out of bleeder, close the bleeder and don't touch it again. next instead of opening the other bleeder (the one near the bypass hose at front right of engine), disconnect the bypass hose and insert a funnel into the hose, fill at hose until coolant comes out of the radiator fill and install the radiator cap and do not remove it again, next continue to fill at hose until coolant comes out of pipe which you disconnected hose from. at this point your cooling system is completely full. reconnect the bypass hose and don't touch anymore bleeders, you're done. make sure there is enough coolant in the overflow bottle. Again, this is all done with a cool non running engine. after cooling system is properly filled if you still have an overheating problem look somewhere else, it's not because there's air in the system. i have shown technicians this filling procedure it works well. I am another reader who had this problem...greatest advise that i had read...and it worked....thank you for this.

How can I effectively bypass a water softener system in my home?

To effectively bypass a water softener system in your home, you can locate the bypass valve on the system and turn it to the "bypass" position. This will allow water to flow through the plumbing without going through the water softener. Make sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions and consult a professional if needed.
