Welcome to AF!
Sorry so later on the reply...

So youre looking for the cooling system bleed valve...
I'm not sure if your engine has one, but coming from recovery bottle(or surge tank) should be some hoses that run acrossed the top of the motor. One should turn into a metal pipe with a brass screw pointing up.

It helps to elevate the front on the car a little. Doesnt have to be realy high, just enough to get the air to move up and out.
If you cant find the bleeder then loosen the radiaotr cap and purge it that way.
ALSO remember to turn on your heater to full heat, this will allow coolant to flow through, as air likes to hide in the heatercore causing no heat or intermitant.

hope that helps.
