Biting my tongue here, he didn't offer to do it? or tell you how to do it?
What did you do to cause air in the cooling system?
To bleed you leave the radiator cap off during warm-up to operating temp. When the coolant level drops in the radiator you keep adding coolant until full. Coolant may spill out the radiator, that would be the air pushing threw. Also some systems are hard to bleed, so shops have a tool they use for bleeding cooling systems.
is it true that other cars not ford like BMW have special place like nob used to bleed the air from engine while ford have not
Pontiac does, at the thermostat housing, could be others but I don't know...
