to bleed the air from the cooling system on an M-30
motor, fill the system and open the air bleed (on top of the thermostat housing) until it pushes all the air out.
top off and test drive, then recheck

while it is running, fill the system and open the bleeder until the air purges, then top up the system and replace the cap and run it with the heater on.

I have the same model car with the same heat problem. I read your post but cannot seem to locate the valve by the radiator you are referring to. Can you please post a picture showing where it is? It's coming in to winter and it would be great to have some heat ASAP! Thanks
