93 lincoln mark v111 antifreeze radiator, how do i bleed air out of rad, coolant from coolant bottle into radiator?

Sounds like sticking thermostat. Replace thermostat if you see no leaks anywhere else.
You need to drain out any bad coolant or water when you replace thermostat and refill with concentrated antifreeze until you have at least 50% antifreeze water ratio.
You have to bleed the engine with new antifreeze solution so there's no air. I always go to youtube and see how mechanics do each engine bleed. Search your car and engine and `coolant flush'. don-ohio

With the car running because it reduces the back pressure have someone that knows how to do it remove the cap from the radiator and see if the radiator is full, not the bottle but the radiator itself. If the antifreeze is not moving from the bottle to the radiator it will overheat. Not having heat unless you rev the engine makes me think the radiator is either not circulating the water or it is low.

in my experience i would have just changed the head gasket instead of putting in a new motor

anyway there could be an air pocket in the engine or rad what i would do is

1 drain the rad by drain plug located at the bottom of rad on left or right side looks like a valve
2 start the car and slowly add 50/50 antifreeze to the rad
3 once rad is full open and fill coolant bottle
4 watch temp to see if it goes up to the high mark

if this does not help I recommend taken the car back to the place you took it to get fixed could be a head gasket problem

You have air in the system
It may work it's way out to the
recovery bottle over time as
it cools and draws in more cool,
so keep container full

I"m not sure if you have a vent hose
to bleed my lincoln ls does

Remove the radiator cap,warm up
when thermostat opens add more
coolant 50/50 or 60/40 Yellow GO5 I
believe

First thing to check would be coolant level in return bottle and/or rad. If you have a rad cap, remove it, start engine, turn heater on and add as necessary when engine at operating temperature as needed. Wait until you see increased flow through radiator before topping up and putting rad cap back on. It may be that coolant level is just low enough to cause airlock in heater core.

on top of the radiator ,you put it in the rad if no rad cap then the bottle on the side with the rad cap on it.

you probably have air trapped in the system. Have dealer or radiator shop bleed system.

I assume your cooling fan is working.

what engine v6 or v8?

SECTION 303-03: Engine Cooling 2001 Lincoln LS Workshop Manual
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION Engine Cooling The cooling system components include the:

• block heater (optional)
• cylinder head temperature sensor
• fan blade, fan motor and fan shroud assembly
• radiator
• pressure relief cap
• degas bottle
• radiator draincock
• water pump
• oil cooler (optional)
• water thermostat

The water thermostat:

• controls the engine coolant temperature.
• allows quicker engine warm-up.

The degas bottle:

• provides a location for system fill.
• contains coolant expansion and system pressurization.
• provides air separation during operation.
• replenishes the engine coolant to the system.

The fan blade draws air through the radiator to help cool the engine coolant.
The fan motor:

• operates only when the engine is running.
• will not operate when the engine is off.

The engine coolant flows:

• from the lower radiator hose to the water pump.
• from the water pump to the engine block and the cylinder heads.

A closed water thermostat returns the engine coolant to the water pump. An open water thermostat allows the engine coolant to flow to the radiator.
Unsatisfactory coolant materials:

• Alcohol-type antifreeze does not provide adequate water pump lubrication.
  • has lower boiling point
  • reduced antifreeze protection
• Alkaline brine solutions will cause serious engine cooling system damage.

The cylinder head temperature sensor provides a signal to the temperature gauge.

• will invoke failsafe cooling.

The optional block heater:

• electrical heating element is installed in the block cooling jacket.
  • uses a standard 110V (220V in Europe) electrical supply
• keeps the engine coolant warm during cold weather.

The auxiliary water pump (3.9L only):

• provides heater coolant flow boost.
• has a secondary function of providing engine-off cooling.

there is a coolant cap on the overflow bottle check it for seal
i'd just replace it
also if you put the new thermostat in backward the overheating would be significant

Start with engine cool. Remove rad cap, top up coolant, start engine, & turn on heater (not defrost). let it run until up to normal operating temperature & radiator fan comes on, then shuts off. Let it do this about 3 times before you put rad cap back on & top up return bottle to proper level. Every once in a while, rev engine slightly for a few seconds while your doing it, to speed up bleed by increasing flow. Keep an eye on temperature gauge for too hot, and fan not coming on, if so, shut it off.

Hi there... with the radiator cap off, start the van and let it warm up. Once the thermostat opens you will see the coolant start to circulate in the rad. let it run for 10 - 15 minutes and add more coolant as needed. you will know when there is no more air because the coolant leve, won't go down anymore. Top up the rad and put the cap back on. make sure the overflow resevoir has coolant in it to the full mark and youre done. Hope this helps you out
