[QUOTE="the.greg, post: 1047937, member: 11226"] I'll go ahead and throw out the proper coolant system burp procedure: Remove radiator cap Remove coolant crossover plug Add 50/50 using a small funnel into the coolant crossover until reservoir is full. Reinstall the radiator cap Continue filling at the coolant crossover slowly using the small funnel to allow air to escape until coolant crossover appears full. Turn heat on high through vents. Start engine and leave it idling, and check for hot air coming from vents. (if air does not get hot and/or the engine temperature does not rise shut off the engine. it could be too low coolant or possible air pockets) Assuming engine reaches normal temperature, and hot air comes from vents, turn off engine and as engine coos down top off coolant as necessary to the COLD FULL level This should take care of any air pockets!
