Well, I think I got out all the air I could. What I did was first started the car up without a thermostat and let all the air work itself out into the radiator- which you could see it doing. Then I put the thermostat in with as much coolant in the system as possible(why couldn't they have put the thermostat facing up?????) and ran the car as I described. I know the thermosat opened because you could see coolant running through the fins, and there were no more bubbles at that point. Am I missing anything here? I'm getting another thermostat today, but I won't be able to run the car until this coming weekend. Thanks for the help so far! -Mark
