1. 06 mini cooper s sealed radiator with a pressure reservoir how do I get the air out of a new radiator

   I don’t have oil in water or water in oil but keep getting air in my collant system. Can it still be the head gasket? It runs well for a few hours after bleeding the system but then it builds up pressure and air again.

   Ford Fiesta 2005 1.4

3. 🆒

4. 11 1/2 years later, an absolutely very helpful video. Unfortunately, I should have watched this a few months ago when I replaced a radiator on a Honda CRV. Your tips and tricks are awesome! Thanks Eric

5. Bopping your lips bop bop bop

6. I needed to do this today and this was perfect thanks Eric

7. I have a d15b2 90 civic dx… it has the bleeder at the front of the car.. near the distributor infront of it.. is this still relevant for bleeding?

8. Hey I got a question. What in the world do I do now with a bunch of air in my system

9. 11years later and still relevant.

10. Great Video…I picked up one of those funnels, gonna burp my 69 BBC Camaro 'cause I put in a new radiator with eFans, new thermostat, all new hoses, new water pump, and Vintage Air. I had drained the block as best I could, also drained the old heater core before taking it out. My car never had a overflow tank or a catch can of any kind, so I think I will add catch can connected to the hose coming out of the radiator neck. What do you think Eric?

11. 11 yrs and still helpful don't ever take this down 👍👍👍

12. My car temp gauge never goes past midway point, but I notice sometimes after I cut the car off, my coolant reservoir has a bubbling sound and coolant spews out from the neck and from under the radiator cap. My cooling fans work when the car gets up to temp. I don't know why it's doing this.

13. I bought my mom a 1999 Chevrolet venture with the 3400 engine. How do I bleed the coolant system?

14. Can’t believe I didn’t watch this sooner I think this may be my problem I replaced all coolant hoses and heater hoses but never bled the system which explains why it started after I did the job. Thank you I’ll update on the issue!

15. Thanks for the share extremely helpful on cooling problem on focus burping system works.✌️👍🙏😊

16. My mercedes is the worse for this. No radiator cap. Only reservoir. So no spill kit has a cap as big as a reservoir cap. No throttle body to accelerate while not being in car. No bleeder valve. Having a hard time bleeding it out

17. 11 years later and still searching the most simplest shit. Cheers Eric🤙

18. need to try this on my ford focus uk spec

19. Honda says to close the heater valve before you put the radiator cap back on. They say its an absolute must, I dont know what to make of it

20. Hi Eric I have a 2015 Renault traffic 80,000 miles that heater just blows cold air ,so I flushed the the heater matrix and found oil in the system. It did heat backup a little bit for 5-10 minutes and then back cold . I had a 3 year apprentice mechanic and he is talking about head cylinders/ gaskets . €0000000
    Any idea what it could be
    Cheers

21. If you don’t have the air release bolt keep the front of the car higher than the rear as your pouring in the new coolant. Incline driveway or jack up the front.

22. best sub iv added been doing this 18 years now and your still the only one that teaches me tips and tricks

23. fluctuating idle? can air in the coolant system lead to DTC P0505?

24. So rev the engine?

25. Great channel , can I do the same thing without a funnel ?
    And I have a land-rover with a leaking intake manifold gasket , I'm gonna fix that soon , but can the vacuum leak cause coolant leak ?
    Thanks Eric

26. So, I guess you CAN drain an engine like you would a bathtub.

27. Why is the fan supposed to be off?

28. Thanks

29. Hell yea 11 years later and still helpfull af thank you Eric

30. how about doing another video like this one on a 97-03 f150, no radiator cap on them but they do have a coolant reservoir tank with a cap.

31. Watching this in 2020

32. Crazy you made this video 11 years ago.

33. Had no overheating issue before I replaced water pump and thermostat. Now it's overheating. I'm not sure if it's air or new stat is faulty.???

34. Can't wait to see if this fixes it. Ok it didn't fix. Or replacing, thermostat, or radiator cooling fan(mine was bad though). Ordered new radiator today, the saga continues.

35. Do 03-05 Civic Hybrids have a bleeder ?

36. Eric is always my go to guy 👍

37. Does anybody knows the correct procedure for a 2094 Jetta 2.0L gas?

38. Great, succinct, video! I didn't know about not running the fan motor while purging the system.

39. 11 years later and I still come back to see your amazing videos 🙏 so helpful

40. What about an engine with no bleeder valve? Trying to purge a 1973 AMC inline 6.

41. Just replaced the radiator, thermostat, hoses and pump. Didn't know how to get the system full of coolant. You helped a lot. I didn't know about the bleeder plug. 2001 GMC Jimmy. I'm rebuilding my AC also. Your AC video helped with that too.

42. If you ever got in my car with those greasy dirty gloves unreal!!

43. 1994 honda accord ex I have bled the system change tps map sensor rapid idle valve cleaned the intake and throttle still has a irratic idle very bucking and Jenkins when you fist take of frustration is setting in should I just scrap it and go by a chevy

44. How would you turn the air on hot and not on for cars with digital temperature?

45. 11 years later <3

46. what is the problem when during the bleeding (2014 toyota sienna) air still comes out after about 20 minutes in the idle?
