My Loyale has done that when it got air in the lines. I get rid of it by adding coolant and "pumping" one of the hoses to get the air out.

how did you go about pumping on a line. bike pump or something?

he probably means by squeezing the heater core line with his hand. The other method I've used with success is to find a way to get the nose of the car as high up in the air as you can, and let it run for a little while.

 

This can either be done by driving up a small hill, parking on ramps, etc. This is my preferred method to bleed the cooling system after doing a flush also.

If you slowly squeeze the upper radiator hose, you can pump most of the air out of the cooling system. It works even better if the nose of the car is uphill.

What Subarian said! icon7.gifCouldn't think of the right word - pump, squeeze, massage, milk... Upper radiator hose - squeeze, release, repeat. Add coolant if necessary, repeat process.
