    Bubbles in your coolant can also mean your exhaust is going into your coolant and your coolant is going out your tail pipe as steam.

    You need a vaccuum pump to vaccuum the air out of the radiator. Snap-on sells a vaccuum powered by an air compressor.

    One of my professors in college drove and serviced Vettes, and some students couldn't understand how he could afford a car like this in the mid 80's, but he made his money restoring these. I also had a boss that owned a mini Vette Opel, and it was a nice looking car.

    Awesome. Lol 1984, that was knight rider’s big sister. 😂😂
    I have to mitt it, and I’ve always been kind of a car guy, I’ve never paid any attention to air in the coolant I just kept it topped off and the overflow filled which should sort of automatically do that if it’s designed halfway decently. Even at two grand that’s a pretty awesome by the 500 was amazing, awesome deal made for a great video as well. Lol 🙌🏼

    Great video this is going to help me out a lot with my 85 chevy camaro I also been having some Overheating issues And I could not get the air bubbles out of the cooling system at all Here in Florida we have no hills so I think I need to Jack the vehicle up because doing it without jacking it up is not working for me And all of the cooling is getting everywhere keeps coming out of the radiator So there definitely is an air pocket in there somewhere if u have Any more tips that would be great thanks

    This can also be done by leaving the rad cap off until it burps the air out, you'll lose coolant, but then just keep adding it back.

      Or knew of a cracked head that was allowing the exhaust gases to escape into the coolant. Hence the reason why when he added antifreeze it came out metallic color the same color found in most engine stop leaks so that's a strong indication that the head or heads where trash.

      I agree...something is astray...you can see the additive floating around...sometimes additive itself can be the cause of oveheating as it interferes with the heat dissipation in the block and cloggs up coolant passeges
