[QUOTE="oldmodman, post: 15524509, member: 10303"] If your engine is sound and tight then there IS a small amount of air left in your system. When it heats up it expands and forces fluid out of the overflow. Keep on burping your system. It has taken me a week and five tries to get all the air out of mine. Some cars seem to be much harder to burp than others. Try doing it with the front wheel up on a ramp to raise the front of the car. Put a hose into the bleed cap and keep it full of coolant while you start, warm up, and cool down the car. Several times. I was surprised the time I stated using that method. I got huge burps of air out of the engine while it was cooling down. I have had enough coolant burping problems that I am really tempted to switch to Evans Waterless Coolant. The radiator runs at zero pressure when hot. No burping. And all the hoses and gaskets will last longer since there is no pressure. Too bad it's so expensive. [/QUOTE]
