    heat and blower on high, then unscrew the bleeder until all the air come out. repeat.

        Overfill the coolant reservoir and go drive around the block with the bleeder cap partly unscrewed with heater on full blast and than tighten it.

        I've also heard someone say once you get most of the bubbles out by revving it you want to leave it at ~2-3grand rev while you tighten down the bleeder screw.
