That would be a good idea. If your cooling system is not bled properly it can result in a shortage in the flow of coolant which can cause serious harm to your engine. If I am not mistaken, to burp the system, open the radiator cap, while the car is cool of course, and start up your engine and monitor the radiator until there are no more bubbles coming up. Somebody please correct me if I am wrong.

the things ive read made it sound alot more difficult than that, though i could be wrong. i was reading things like, jack up the front or park on a hill, remove the bleed bolt, and flush it with water(or coolant?) until there are none left. anything is helpful at this point really.
