I just put my new motor in, new water pump, new t-stat, and filled the coolent, but I could'nt fill it right because it took awhile to start and I had to keep it running, but I filled it after it cooled down,I filled it again but the motor is over heating still! I think there might be air in the system, can any one tell me what is wrong? or what to do?

RE: Coolent question
Cooling System--Filling
NOTE:
A 50/50 mixture of Premium Cooling System Fluid E2FZ-19549-AA (ESE-M97B44-A and ESE-M97B43-A) of equivalent and water is required to prevent damage to the cooling system.
1. Check all hose clamps for proper tightness. Ensure radiator draincock is closed.
2. Place heater temperature selector in maximum heat position.
3. Remove pressure cap from cooling system reservoir and fill plug from engine crossover tube.
CAUTION:
Do not fill cooling system through reservoir only. Coolant will not enter engine. Only reservoir and radiator will be filled and engine overheating will occur.
4. Add coolant into fill neck on engine crossover tube until coolant reaches top of fill neck on cooling system reservoir.
5. Reinstall cooling system pressure cap to reservoir.
6. Continue to fill cooling system at engine crossover fill neck until full.
7. Start engine, run at idle. Add coolant at engine crossover tube until full.
8. Reinstall engine crossover tube full plug.
CAUTION:
If engine temperature gauge does not move, coolant level is low in engine and must be filled. Stop engine, allow to cool and fill cooling system as outlined.
WARNING:
TO AVOID THE POSSIBILITY OF PERSONAL INJURY OR DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE, DO NOT OPERATE ENGINE WITH HOOD OPEN UNTIL FAN HAS BEEN FIRST EXAMINED FOR POSSIBLE CRACKS AND SEPARATION.
9. Run engine until thermostat opens (coolant flowing through radiator lower hose becomes hot).
10. Stop engine and add coolant to engine crossover tube fill neck until cooling system is full. Reinstall fill plug.
11. Repeat fill procedure if necessary.

RE: Coolent question
JP - wouldn't it be easier to put a sticky on how to fill coolant system in the 'Tech Folder'? Seems like I see this 'how to' every few days now!
