Default How do you bleed the air out of the cooling system?!?!

I have a skunk2 manifold on my gsr and when it warms up the RPMS surge up and down and i was told it could be because of air in my coolant system so if someone could tell me how to bleed the system so there is no air in it and if there is anything i should check for to fix my problem. thanks.

if there is a valve on the upper radiator hose neck ..loosen that a bit that will help you bleed it quickly. * you might wanna hook a small piece of bulk fuel line or small heater hose to it and route the excess to a cup or somethin

isn't there a bleed valve? on the highest point of the cooling system?

I just flushed the cooling system on my 89 legend and the air bleed is on the where the thermostat at, right after the radiator hose(upper)
