Is thier a coolant bleed valve on a 01 B18C5? I looked at an integra helms and saw one but couldnt find one where it is supposed to be on my motor

 

 

on the radiator? I dont know if the stock radiator has a drain plug or not.

Not on the radiator, on the actual motor

 

Yea there is a plug on the front of the block to the left of the dipstick.

Isn't that just the drain bolt for the block?
In the helms it shows a bolt with a nipple on it that you loosen to bleed air out of the system. Its shown as being located on the thermostat housing, below the distributor, where the upper radiator hose comes in.

 

Form what I remember it states to remove the radiator cap and let it run for a little while, the bubbles will find their own way out, no bleed screw. When I pulled the intake manifold, and when I changed the thermostat this is the method that I followed, no issues.

When I flushed my system I just ran it with that bolt out while filling the radiator with water. I'm not using coolant but if you just run the motor for 15 seconds or so you should be good.

Like Austin said, no bleeder on the R.

You looking at an old helms for a B16 motor? Honda eliminated that nipple because it keeps breaking. In fact if you order one with a nipple from Honda, you will get one without.

 

I was looking at a helms for 94-95 integra.

I just bled the old fashioned way last night and everything turned out good. Ran the car around town for a couple hours today in 90+ heat with the AC on full and no problems at all

This is the way i have always been doing it without any problems. (let it run of a awhile and watch the water slowly drop and just keep adding more water.
