Burping radiator?

Has anyone heard about having to burp your radiator?

my friend told me that I had a pocket of air stuck and going from my heater core and then to the head
then back again, and it was stuck..

he told me that when it was cold to let it burp out the exit port on the heater core?

any one know any thing else on this?

I just put the 16v 1.6 in my samurai, and was showing it to him...

any other way to "burp" it....

thanks

HaHa .. funny brent

But anyway, from working service on cars, after doing a flush and fill on cars we put a funnel that connect to the top of the radiator where the cap goes, start the car up and let it run till the thermostat would open to let all the air out, burping it ... slight revs of the engine every little while helps
