Neither. Just pop open the radiator cap if you want to bleed air out of the system.

you have to pop the radiator cap off then RUN the car at idle for 20 min or so, just taking off the cap won't do chit.

My buddy who's a honda tech said to fill and let the radiator fan kick on twice. Once the fan kicks on the second time, the bleeding process should be complete.
