How to Bleed the Cooling System

[Tony]

Hello Fellow Fiat owners.
(Looks like a great site)

The Vehicle:1996 Fiat Bravo 1.4 12 Valve without air/con.

Problem: Replacement radiator fitted, have run the engine to heat up the coolant, loosened -removed the Bleed screw on the Heater Hose.

Unable to remove an air lock = Heater stays cold, and Bottom radiator hose also stays cold.

Is there a special procedure to follow, any assistance will be appreciated.

Look forward to hearing from you.

Best regards,

U should open the valves from A to C (D whit aircon). And pour some water / antifreeze in till it gets out on valves A and B(whit aircon), than close them; pour some water more till it starts to get out on valve C, than close the valve; and then the same on valve D. (only whit air con). That will get the air out of the system.

And remember to turn the heater on before you start.
