Cooling system bleed?

Post by busman »

My GQ td42 blew a water hose to the turbo today(didn't get past 3/4 on gauge and travelled approx.2kms to shop) had it replaced,on the drive home was running up to 3/4 on gauge previously never past 1/3. Is there a bleed screw in the system?

Bleeder hose runs from Thermostat housing outlet to radiator filler neck. Filling system slowly allows air bubbles to bleed off here.
