Coolant flush question LT4
I did some advanced searches, and can't seem to find any threads with the locations of the air bleeder valves. I don't have my Chiltons or FSM handy at the moment, as I'm sure it is in there. So, can someone tell me where the cooling system air bleeder valves are on a 96? I can only seem to find the one on the thermostat housing. Thanks!

Thanks.
Do you know what the difference is between the digital temp gauge and the analog? After flushing, I am noticing that the analog heats up a bit faster than the digital, and there is a discrepancy for a long time. I am sure there is air trapped in the system, and will need to bleed it out a few more times.

Analog gage = sensor on passenger head
Digital gage = ECM input = sensor on water pump

My upper radiator hose burst on the freeway a week ago, and the analog hit 260 degrees right as I was turning the motor off. After replacing the upper and lower hoses, thermostat, and flushing the system, everything seems fine. Is there anything I should be watching for, besides signs of a blown head gasket?
