2H - bleeding the cooling system?

Post by twr7cx »

Does the cooling system in the 2H need to be bled of air? As I notice there's a top bolt on the thermostat housing and some other coolant line:

Run it with the radiator cap off for a while. I've never noticed the bolt on top of the thermostat housing. Is it a mounting bolt? Or actually a bleed bolt?

From another thread;

Remove the heater hose off the highest fitting in the cylinder head. It is higher than the rad cap. Fill cooling system through heater hose until water comes out of fitting in head bleeding air out.
