I know, but it's been cold here....too cold for that kind of project. I'm guessing it's been flushed recently because what came out of it looked very clean. I used 3 1/2 gals of 50/50 peak global lifetime so there's no risk of it doing the gel thing. It's amazing how much you can get out if you gently blow into the hoses.
When I was trying to get the broken bleed screw out of the hose, the entire thing fell out. I barely even pushed on it so I'm thinking it would failed soon anyway. I ran down to the dealership and bought a new, updated style upper hose assembly for $100....but it's fixed and bled. Seems to run cooler and I have heat. Seemed to settle at 186 @ idle. I'll drive it tomorrow and see if it actually runs cooler.

whilst bleeding turn the ignition key to position 2 and set A/C on max heat to fully open the heater waterway solenoids. Leave the ignition key in position 2 whilst bleeding.
