I have a 91 chevy 2.2L cavalier and am about to finish replacing the waterpump. Once I've finished the replacement I was wondering how to properly bleed the coolant system. Is there a bleed valve that I may not be aware of, or another method of doing this.

thank you in advance.

raise front of vehicle on jack/stands, add coolant to vehicle, start engine and turn on heater blowers to full hot add more coolant to correct level, leave car running untill thermostat opens and then top up coolant if required and replace coolant cap
