At the bottom of the radiator on the driver's side, its a twist type. Turn the **** about 90 degrees and the coolant should come out of the spout.

If you want to get all the air out of the system run the engine with the coolant cap off the expansion tank, air naturally rises so it will bubble up through the top of the tank.

yep what auditech said, the coolant resivoir is the highest point int he coolant system so any air will exit from there.
