I normaly let it go through a heat cycle at idle, or if your v8 very
gets there block off part of the radiator. I wouold check, the fuses,
when I had my 20v I was told the seat heaters nevetr worked for him, all
I did was replace a blown fuse and now I had warmth for my rear.=20

No bleeding procedure I'm aware of other than to keep filling the
reservoir while the waterpump circulates coolant after the thermostat
opens.  I watch the return line to the reservoir until I can see it
supplying a steady stream into the reservoir.
