Default Help... air pocket in cooling system!!!!

I put Samco coolant sport hoses on my Z. They look great.

In doing this, I now have an air pocket in my cooling system.

Any suggestions on how I may be able to correct this problem.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Thank you

There is a bleeder valve on a hose towards the back of the motor on the Passenger side. Open the valve and fill slowly until coolant comes out of the valve.

DID WHAT WAS SUGGESTED AND IT WORKED IN REGARDS TO MY TEMP BEING NORMAL.

I DID NOT HAVE THE HEATER ON AND I NOTICE THAT I CAN NOT GET HEAT INSIDE THE CAR.

DO YOU RELEASE THE VALVE WITH CAR RUNNING AND RADIATOR CAP ON??? (UNDER PRESURE)
