What has always worked for me personally: Fill the system with the bleed screw loose, until coolant starts to dribble out. Tighten the bleed screw. Leave the rad cap off. Turn on the car. Let it get completely up to operating temp. Install cap. Turn off car. Go drive.

Don't forget to turn on the heater full blast while you're heating up the car with rad cap off.
