My Radiator was leaking. I replaced it and the top and bottom hose. Now the engine is trying to over heat and the top hose is hot and bottom hose is cold. Could there be air in the line if so how do I get it out?

you might check for air bleed screws on thermostat or near intake otherwise this is how you are supposed to do it. the lower hose will or should be cooler than upper hose. see pic
