Bleed air from system like this. Remove cap from overflow tank fill with antifreeze to full mark leave cap off and start vehicle and let idle once vehicle starts to reach operating temp thermostat will start to open antifreeze level in tank will drop add more antifreeze to full mark then put cap back on. Also you will notice the antifreeze will start to rise in tank this is normal and will drop once the thermostat starts to open.
