How to “BURP” Bleed Air Out of a Cars Cooling System - Easy DIY process for ALL makes 

Most youtubers feel compelled to do small talk and give backstories rather than just get on n do it like seen here. Good stuff man

Good job from an old retired tech,you explained it very well,even a dummy couldn’t screw this up. I checked other videos and yours is the best.I can suggest a cork from a wine bottle works well for the funnel.

Youre a blessing brother. I was panicking, all my prestone leaked and I dint know. Took the highway and sensor/temperature light went to the roof and had white smoke. 2 days of craziness. Look out on youtube. Find the leak, replace the hose, and refill it with your instruction. 🙏🏽Many blessing to you🙏🏽 Liked your video and subscribed. Thank you again 🙏🏽 from Montreal Canada

In my humble opinion your video has Definitely the best explained details from the rest I have viewed previously thanks for the awesome video.

Thank you, Lech! One of the best videos for this procedure. You hit every important point!

This is an excellent video. Detailed and straightforward, with no unnecessary small talk.

I don't often comment on the videos, but thank you very much. that one explained it perfectly to me

Thanks for the vid - I had trouble finding videos that demonstrated this for cars without a radiator cap. So much appreciated!

Good to know to have better direct explanation without waste of time, Yes I will do to bleed little Mini Cooper s R53 with this this method soon because I’m going to replace the radiator tmrw ! thanks in advance, great help

Great explanation. When I have the time, I typically leave the funnel in place (loosely covered to avoid debris entry) at the end of the burping process. I remove it after the system cools. This avoids handling of the hot coolant and allows some additional coolant to be drawn into the system as it contracts. After removing the funnel with remaining cooled liquid, I then just draw some coolant out of the reservoir until it's at the proper level.

Thank you for the beautiful service that you are providing your customers

Excellent, man! Your a good teacher. I especially like the tip on getting the specialty funnel system.

Thank you for making this video and the detailed instructions.

the best explanation ever, clear and to the point. Thank you very much.

EXCELLENT Video Sir. This is a comprehensive and wonderful tutorial on coolant system air removal. I love it! I even went to my local autozone and got the kit since the funnel and screw driver was giving me issues. but it did work just fine, little messy though.

Best video for this process that I have seen. Very complete. Thanks!!

Thank You this was probably one of the best explained videos with the bleeder valve and how to properly use it.

Great video man . The reason they have a have a max level is so there is a volume of air to act as a " shock absorber" in the hydraulics of the coolant system.

This is actually my Black Saturday project. Time to drain and fill the wife's 300. But don't tell her I am doing this, so that I can put off putting up Christmas decor, until December hahaha! Thanks for the link to the funnel, definitely going to get one of those!

The best explanation I've ever seen. Thank you

Just what I needed. Thanks for sharing!

Legend and a half, thanks heaps mate.. from Australia

Badass!! I have an '08 Charger and just did this yesterday. Im glad i did it right. 😂

Excellent video man helped me out ! Have a blessed day

Hello all! FYI The kit he uses is worth every penny and work great! Amazon has good ones pretty cheap, around $20 with all kinds of radiator cap adapters.

Perfect video for everything I needed, straight to the point with all the info needed ❤💕

Very well explained Thank you!!

Very good and to the point! Thank you!

Great video, the actual way it should be done

Perfect video & explanation Blessings.

Lech, you are absolutely awesome, thank you so much for doing the whole cooling system series of videos.This one, like the last two I watched are greatly informative and very helpful.

Brilliant Mate! Thank you.

Nice job Lech, like your style Sir ........thank you

THANK YOU SO MUCH, I ENJOYED THE VIDEO VERY HELPFUL

Appreciate the video bro thanks 👍🏽

First off, excellent video well thought out and explained, really has helped me. I appreciate you didn't try to do all this while holding you camera, it makes for a much better video.

Thank you 😊 this was a great video much appreciated 👍

Thank you for the video brother!!!!!

Great video straight to the point

Nice video. Very informative 👍

Great video 😃👍🏼

excellent video

very well presented.

Excellent Video thank you very much!

Thank you very much, I had so much air in my system and now it runs perfectly for the moment no issues.

Good information. Thank you!!!!!

Thanks for this video.

great video for no radiator cap cars. I am off to give it a go. I'll let all know my outcome.

Genius thanks man.

Very helpful.

All I can say is excellent!

Thank you bro. I was scared that since i dont have a radiator cap this kit wouldn’t work. Going to do it now

thanks for the vid 🤘

Very helpful

Thank you so much dude

Love y’all’s t-shirt!

Awesome thanks buddy

Oh yeah. If you open the radiator cap.. with any old rubber coated cotton glove, you can bleed the overflow hoses by forcing air and coolant into the passage meant for over pressure by moving the cap until it gurgles lol 😂 then it’s relatively safe once the temp drops. Even hot. I’d recommend like.. getting to thermostat temp then waiting 5-10min.

great video

Thanks 🙏🏽 bro 👍🏽💯💪🏽❤️

One day later. used the no spill and it worked great. used the rev technique and the hose squeeze too and bubbles just kept coming til ...the did not. took maybe 45 mins . Still keeping and eye on the gauge. Got a little hot yesterday at 80mph but cooled as i slowed to city driving. Burped it again this morning and will do the 80 test again. I don't like seeing it get that hot since that is a new high for it. Net... Great short effective video all the best neal sw fla

excellent

Excellent ❤

Good job!!!!!

Good job your video help me a lot thanks I was Abel to fix my overheating

Thank you thank you ❤

great vid

I love the shirt bro!

I have a 2003 Honda Civic LX with no bleeder valve and did everything this man did and it still didn't work. What I found out later is that you leave that funnel with coolant attached after shutting off the engine. Do not plug it. Let the coolant and engine cool overnight. As the coolant in the radiator and engine gets cold it contracts creating a vacuum sucking more coolant from the funnel. If you remove the fumnel too early, you risk sucking in air instead.

Great video....

Thank you so much, Lech! This video helped save my F-150 after my heater core inlet hose broke due to age. I didn’t realize air was introduced at that time & didn’t think anything of it until my radiator fans started behaving like helicopters. This is the clearest & most accurate presentation on how to do this, thank you again so much! Do you have a Venmo i can donate to for your time & effort please?

Good video, yeah you could leave the heater fans off the get the engine up to temp quicker. Some cars have a valve for coolant flow to the heater core energized by turning on the heat but if it were my car I would remove that valve so coolant flows 100% of the time keeping the lines and the core clean. Just some thoughts.

Thank you

NICE!

Exactly what i was looking for thank you

I hope you still answer questions on this video, i was just in a accident in my other vehicle and my family is down to one car and Im needing to use this tool to get the air out the coolant system. This is where Im confused. Was your coolant system totally empty? I was doing mine after a flush, so it was bone dry. One confusion is I thought the temperature gauge in the car dont suppose to move at all. Ive heard that if your temperature gauge moves its still air in the system OR are you saying only through this process the temperature needle in tbe car should drop down when the thermostat opens? After doing this the temperature needle in the car shouldn't move right? Respectfully, you said you want to wait till you see the bubbles stop in the funnel.. as you notice the bubbles stopped once you started closing the bleeder. So do you keep letting it come out the bleeder till you stop seeing bubbles in the funnel or wait till you have a steady stream coming out the bleeder? Did it stop showing bubbles because your reservoir was full or the best thing to do is let some more out the bleeder close it and wait till no bubbles in funnel before the reservoir gets full? Last question, its 2 or 3 adapters I could use. The red one fits into the smaller hole in the reservoir and the metal cap fits on but the gasket falls off the red one when pulling it out.. the black adapter fits more to the top main entry of the reservoir and pushes down snug when i put the metal cap on. The yellow one i have fits like yours but I cant get the metal cap to twist on. Did you have a little struggle getting your metal cap on to make sure its air tight? Sorry for so many questions, this is the best video explaining how to use this tool. There youtube channel instructions are horrible.

Nice job

Hey thanks for the tip I just replace the thermostat on my 2014 caravan and after it was running hot when I was getting on the gas but cooling back down eventually I think I have air in it I'm going to try this

Fan motor does not need to be on high. Temperature select does need to be maxxed so max fluid flow can pass through. Having fan speed on high makes heater core act as a miniature radiator, cooling fluid and lengthening warm up time.

Awesome. Will watch again when motor cool down 😅

Best explanation on RU-vid. Thanks.

What if a car doesnt have a bleeder? My vehicle also does not run up to temp for fans/thermostat opening without the coolant res cap on. Will using this funnel method allow my car to get up to temp for thermostat open? I noticed you said your thermostat was opening but it wasnt even at 20c. Mine opens at 97c.

So if I changed my Radiator and It needs to be filled up with no Radiator cap, I would just fill it up like u did through the reservoir and it wil travel to the radiator and fill it up?

We’ll explained thanks

Awesome Video, Thank you but I paid for the same Funnel Kit $44.00 at O’Reilly’s, well I just bought today, 2024.

Thanks.

Had my water pump changed yesterday didn't over heat anymore didn't leak no more , gonna put on thermostat today just now after this video then bleed the system

can you please send me the link to the exact reservoir funnel kit you used in the video? Thanks! im now a SUBSCRIBER OF YOURS!

Very nice video! A quick question, my cars AC gas leaked out. How do I bleed the system without any hot air?

Great vid! I only have one question, you didn't remove the excess liquid as it will "overflow and drain out". How does that work? Does it go back into the overflow reservoir? I've been told to not add coolant above the max line for my 78 TA. What should I do?

Good video was having issues bow I know what to do

Thank you I have one question I already placed not even one gallon of coolant in my engine I can I still do this process or will I need to drain all of the coolant and start this procedure from the begining?

Very nice vid. But why did the coolant change color? I don't know but I suppose it is a sign of something.

Great video I have been doing this but the temperature gauge on my 5.7 Durango is fluctuating up and down sooner I hit traffic I can see the temperature jump to midel and then come back down but before i did a radiator flush the temperature gauge was stable wasn’t fluctuating ! Any help appreciated thank you

Would this work on 08 Saturn vue xr I can fix almost anything on a car but when it comes to this I’m no good but I went out and brought one of those funnels if you over fill the overflow tank just let it cool down then take a little from the radiator
