Re: How do you bleed coolant system on 2000 si?
with car cold, take off radiator cap and start engine. rev a bit to warm up the car to operating temp (keep it below 3k rpms tho), and turn the heater on max heat and full fan. watch the coolant level and keep adding more to keep it at the top of the radiator. you should see bubbles coming out. keep doing it til they stop and then put cap back on. may take 15 mins or more.
