Well my car broke down so I had to drive my sisters old civic which is another sorta broken car. She said that the car overheated after driving 30-40mins and advised that I don't drive it if it takes me longer than that to get to whereever I'm going. If the temp rises, turn on the heater and open the windows. So I started searching the forums and some people say to bleed the radiator, so I started doing that. While the car was running, I just went to read more posts and then I go to recheck the car ever 5 mins. I then started to notice after reading several posts, the cars fan never turns on, there is constant bubbles after 40 mins, and the radiator doesn't seem to drain the coolant... ever.


So i was wondering how long does it take to bleed air out of the radiator? Does it normally take this long?

Also, I read a post that said if theres constant bubbling, it could be a blown gasket?

What do you think?

Thanks
