Struggling to bleed coolant and I know there are a few threads but I get no results.

Front end jacked up high, heater on but not getting the air out of the bleed valve near the rocker cover.

Gary, by far the easiest method i have used in the past IMO, is put your mouth around the rad cap opening, attach a transparent long tube (2-3 mm diameter IIRC) onto the bleed nipple (which is opened slightly) near the block and blow into the rad cap whilst holding the tube - eventually, well rather quickly you will see bubbles appear.

By the far the quickest and easiest method, just dont ingest the coolant LOL.

Yep, found an earlier post of yours suggesting that and all sorted now, Ta.
