I've been air locked.
I generally follow the same instructions as these guys, but I reverse fill the upper radiator hose. I fill the upper hose with coolant (which fills the head directly) until the hose itself is almost full, then attach the hose to the radiator. Then I'll run the car, and "massage" the lower radiator hose. You should be able to hear the coolant squirting from the upper hose into the radiator. The lower hose should remain cool until the thermostat opens and circulates the hot coolant.. then you should check the radiator and fill the reservoir.
I've done this like 3 times in the last 2 months trying to find a coolant leak, no problems. It was coming from my thermostat housing.Comment

also have a new theory what if the v belt for the alt / water pump is on to lose or tight? would this cause similar problems how much slack is there on your guy's belts?Comment
