It helps to have the front higher than the rear. Park it facing up hill. My V8 is pretty easy to burp - no real gotchas like on some other vehicles. If your heat still isn't working correctly then check the heater control valve.
 






Park it with front uphill, remove cap, squeeze upper radiator hose with both hands several times until the bubbles stop. You can also squeeze the heater hoses. It helps push the air out of the system.
 






Hey I think I got all the air out but now warm air on passenger side cool on left any help would be appreciated
