you have and its quite alright since i have not bled the system at operating temp thinking it would squirt out everywhere being under pressure

 

It wont build pressure when bleeding because your cap and bleeder will be open. Try this:

Unscrew the air bleed screw to the right of the battery. (Large phillips) its plastic
Remove the radiatior cap and fill.
Fill the reservoir in between Low and Full.
Leave rad. cap and bleed screw off and start car, turn heat on full blast.
Let car warm up, put towels under rad. cap and bleed area to catch overflow.
When coolant is visible at bleed screw, put the screw back on tight.
When thermostat opens up coolant/bubbles will rise out of rad. cap. Cap it off now.
Check the level in your reservoir, make sure its in between Full and Low.
Let it idle for a minute or two then turn off heater. Let it idle for another minute and shut off car. Let car cool then check coolant level at radiator and reservoir. Fill to previous mentioned levels.
Should be good to go. Repeat steps if any air is suspect in system.

 

looks like this may have finally solved my issue, gonna keep my fingers crossed once temps get below -20C, thanks and good luck with your rebuild, its not mine and it hurts looking at it
