Default no coolant bleed onthe b20...?

before i go breaking the seal and swapping the little coolant air bleeder nipple/housing from my ls, why is there no bleeder on my jdm b20.

Is this normal for the newer cars?

Did they have some other "external" mechanism on the crv for it

Honda has said that they are no longer needed. Fill the Radiator, run the vehicle, keep filling when needed while the vehicle is running, wait until the radiator fan comes on.

You should also turn your heater control to hot until it is filled. That way no air is trapped in the heater core.
