Cooling System Bleeding

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 9 other vehicles, including the 2002 Dodge Stratus, 2002 Dodge Neon, 2002 Dodge Intrepid, 2002 Chrysler Sebring, and 2002 Chrysler PT Cruiser. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Air in system will collect under radiator cap. As engine reaches operating temperature, coolant and any trapped air will enter reserve tank. As engine cools, a vacuum will be created which will draw only coolant into cooling system. After engine has gone through a warm-up and cooling cycle, run engine until it again reaches operating temperature. Ensure coolant in reserve tank is at warm coolant mark on reserve tank or dipstick.
