Where the upper hose meets the engine is the thermostat housing. On the housing is a bleed nipple (10mm). Can't miss it. It sticks up in the air at an angle and is at the highest point of the cooling system.
1. Loosen the nipple,
2. fill reservoir until coolant comes out of the nipple.
3. Tighten and close everything.
4. Run until hot with heater temp all the way up.
5. Repeat 1-3.
Be careful - hot coolant! Stand away from nipple as you open it. If coolant comes out when you open the nipple, there is no need to continue.
