I only know of one way.

Start the car with the Radiator Cap off, Heater on Hot, and let the car warm up. Bubbles will come to the top and top off coolant/water.

I think he wants to bleed the whole system ......

ITR #132's way is a correct way to bleed it, yes it does make a mess but its the way I learned from Acura.

It only burns if you open the radiator cap when the coolant is hot already.

How do you bleed your coolant?

i hate to give links to websites that require a membership, but team-interga is a must for integra owners if you want access to their articles. anyway, this is the COMPLETE way to flush your system.
