Umm...you check the link I posted? Here, I'll save you the trouble. Here's his post:
a lot of people over-think this. open the bleeder & reservoir cap. fill it up w/ coolant. start the car & let it warm up. once the thermostat opens, the coolant level will drop. shut the motor & fill it back up with coolant. now go for a 20min drive with the bleeder OPEN. go home, shut the bleeder, park the car, and DO NOT OPEN THE RESERVOIR CAP. let the car cool off on its own. once it's cool, top it off again & you're good.
important note: once the big bubbles are out, the system is self-bleeding!!!
Like I said, if I was doing this without the airlift, this is what I'd probably do.
