Just fiil it up till its full . I used to take off a heater hose to let the air out . Reconect the heater hose when water starts coming out and top up the rad till its full . :D

al's right, the heater is the highest point in the water system, so air will naturally get trapped there. fill up the system to the top, then remove the heater hose and purge the remaining air out. sorted.
