You will have to burp the system by doing the following...

1)Park the car pointed uphill or put it on ramps

2) fill the block by removing the hose from the top of the radiator and filling it with water until it overflows then reattach it.

3) Fill the expansion tank and start the car. Get it up to normal temperature

4) Turn the defroster on

5) Rev the engine to about 3000RPM a few times the air should come out of the system.


If you are going to flush the system make sure you drain the engine block via the block drain. Do some searches on Citric Acid Flush to see comprehensive instructions.

Good luck!
