I have a question about flushing the coolant in my ’95 z28. I’ve been having an overheating problem that I suspect to be the water pump but before I swapped that out ETCG suggested bleed any air out of the cooling system in the hopes that was the problem. My coolant level is right on the money according to the stick but I don’t see any coolant under the cap after running the engine much less getting an overflow. When flushing the system are you supposed to add that much over or is something wrong here? I took my thermostat out, too, by the way.
The day after I attempted to bleed the cooling system I got home from work and when I shut the engine off I heard coolant sloshing around in the engine. Did I just force more air into it?

Sorry for the super late reply. I replaced the heater core and it was actually not a big deal getting to. That’s a nice change for my car… So far it’s running good. The temp tops out at 185F which is about 10-15 degrees higher than before but I’m still not sure it’s 100% full. Just hoping it’s fine now. With school starting up I gotta drive long and far all week.
