Fricking frackin van.  My 86 2WD Westy has been running a little warm (have to turn the
heater on sometimes) so I figure I'd better bleed it to be sure there's no air in it.  So I park it
up on the ramps, expansion cap off and it's up to temp, but I'm getting nothing from the
thermostat bleed screw, some air from the rad, but I can tell if it's going in or coming out
(coolant starts siphoning out of expansion tank?).

Anyways, before getting any coolant out of the thermostat bleed screw or radiator bleed
screw, my coolant boils over!  What a mess!

Thoughts?  Bad thermostat (rad was warm, but no coolant from bleed screw).  Did I screw
something up in the procedure?

Ack.
