I cannot find a coolant bleed screw/bolt on my 2001 V6. Many vehicles have one near the T-stat housing.
Am I overlooking it ?
thx

From AllData:
Bleed the cooling system.
1. Start the engine and open the heater water valve.
2. Maintain the engine speed at 2,000 - 2,500 rpm and warm up the engine.
3. Stop the engine and wait until the engine coolant cools down.
4. Refill coolant into the reservoir until it is "FULL".
So there's no bleed screw. Warm up so the heater valve opens, allowing the coolant to flow thru the system, then fill the overflow tank to full and add as needed.
