Now that winter has arrived in Chicago, I have become motivated to get the heaters working in my recent Subie conversion. This has involved draining, refilling and bleeding the cooling system a few times as I try different configurations. The radiator has a bleed screw, the rear heater has a bleed screw, but the front heater does not. I don't understand how the air in the front heater is ever supposed to get out; it is considerably higher than the heater hoses which run under the van. It seems to me that if there is any significant air in the front heater core it would not transfer heat very well and the coolant would not circulate the way it should. Does anyone have an answer, solution, or some reassurance for me? Larry A. '91 GL with EJ22
