2008 XJ Coolant Change burp button?

Is there a way to burp it when doing a coolant change. It just wont take it all unless it sits over night practically

I believe that if you park it on an incline or jack up the front end it helps

to release air from the cooling system.

Jack up front passenger end. Heat on full blast. Takes a few cycles to fully bleed. The hacking of the passenger side is for the initial and gets most air out of the system.

Not too high on one corner because of the danger of Aluminum body "twisting".
