... and if you'd bled a few times correctly, and you're seeing a constant stream of bubbles (especially when revving), I'm afraid there might be some bad news: headgasket time.
Is your expansion tank becoming very pressurized when you drive it?
Does it start very roughly and then smooth out?
Any steam out the exhaust? (on start up?)
Try pulling your sparkplugs, and look to see if any 1 or 2 is very clean compared to the others.
Also, how recently have you replaced your thermostat?
let's do some more digging and see what else turns up.
