Any tips on bleeding coolant system on hiace van

Hi fellas, I need to bleed any air out of my van. have dropped all water out. topped up with coolant, even put front up on ramps to move air, opened heater, squeezed hoses, run with cap off, anything else I can do? TIA

no, putting the front up on ramps usually fixes any stubborn ones. some toyotas tend to airlock in the heater hoses as they are sometimes higher than the radiator fill point.
just give it a run to heat up a bit, then let it cool right down. check coolant level.

thank you, I've taken out the rear heater hoses anyway. they were corroded and a potential failure point, and never got used as its a wee camper now. after cooking it on Arthurs Pass at New Years I'm not taking any chances

While its up on the ramp, with the cap off, give it an almighty rev.
