If the castings of the engine happen to be able to catch and hold air pockets, it is about the only reliable way to get the air to move out of the head or block where it is trapped.
Park in a manner that puts the uppermost hose on the engine at the highest point. If it happens to be the upper heater hose, you may consider adding a flushing tee.
Air pockets are rather common. I have had 3 vehicles that suffered from air pockets in various locations.
SOURCE: run hard at 2500 rpm 96 nissan pickup 2.4 5 speed
I had a similar problem mine would hit a rev limiter at 3500 rpms. it would blow black sut out of the tail pipe. Ended up being mass air flow sensor/valorem sensor. almost 500.00 from nissan. fixed it though.
SOURCE: stick shift # Automatic RPM
That is normal,If you do the same speed in 4th gear the rpm's will almost double.
The rpm's will repond faster in a manual than an automatic.
In a manual the engine supplies the power required directly to the gear that you have selected thus the engine rpm's will increase or decrease as needed.
SOURCE: The RPM of Nissan Altima stays high when drive over 65 MPH.
No....the rpms differ from engine to engine and from manufacturer to manufacturer. RPM's are always higher at higher speeds.
