there is a bleeder hole on the intake manifold near the temp. sensor and temp. sender. It is actually a bolt, but anyway take it out and rock the car back and forth a little or just let it sit there for a while with the hole open. The air should eventually come out. By the way, what kind of problems are you having that you want to bleed the cooling system?

also, while it's open, pour distiled water into the radiator untill coolant comes out the bleeder, then put it back and your set.
