where is the bleeder screw?
O.K. I just repaired a coolant leak and filled the cooling system back up and checked for leaks on my 90 L-98.Now I would like to bleed out the air from the cooling system,but can't find any bleeder screws.From reading previous posts,I thought it should be on the thermostat housing,but I checked and don't have one there.Does the 90 not have a bleeder?Thanks in advance.

Most guys burp the system, I haven't heard of a bleeder on the L-98, but I could be wrong. Elevate the front end, idle the engine until the thermostat opens, remove the radiator cap, increase the idle to around 1700-2000 rpm, fill the rad. to the top, and replace the cap.

No bleeder on the L98, the LT1/4s have it.
