      You crack the bleeder screw open while you are filling it untill its full and starts to come out the weap hole. Close it off-start the car-let run for alittle bit till it starts to get warm(watch the gauge). Watch for the thermostat to open also. Then crack open the bleeder screw and watch for air coming out. You might have to do that once or twice. And fill coolant alittle in between.

                    Why are you guys so bent up, about a pair of startecs? It's not like they were sprayed with VHT or the man doesn't have another 5 sets stashed away.

                      Last year the gate man tried to upcharge us for being early and for being part of a group...such a crook.

                              That's one of the other reasons why I don't go anymore either.
