Default How to bleed air from the cooling system of a 1999 model


the only bleeder on an S Type 1999

Funnel and those caps fit nicely ,then cut to size tape up and hang from the open bonnet .. do you think this will work ? and does anyone know if the 1999 model can self bleed through the header tank (no bleed screw there)..as in through the cap itself ..

I wonder if the header cap has a valve inside to lets air out but not in , the manual says always have the cap on when bleeding (makes sense)
