How to Burp Cooling System | Subaru WRX STI |
How to burp your cooling system. If you do work in your cooling system that requires you to drain your coolant, you have to purge the system of air or “burp” the system. In this video I show you how to easily do that with a no-spill kit. The car shown is a 2020Subaru STI, but this is the same exact process regardless of car.

I just pat mine on the trunk gently after filling with fuel until she let's the gasses out, and then she takes a nice little nap in the garage.
Thank you! Finally someone that explains what ‘I’ actually wanted to know, as apposed to ,spending an entire ‘15 - 20 minute video’, just listening to themselves talk. About ‘everything but !’ 😵💫😁✌️
yup, i hate that. lol
I changed my thermostat in my 2010 Forester XT and I still was some overheating. I watched your video and found out I fill the coolant very incorrectly. I re-did it after your video and no overheating and everything is perfect. THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Thank you, you just boosted my confidence to perform an engine flush & change out my old coolant with new ...your detailed information is priceless.thankyou.🎉
Thank you for this video. Helped my dad and I get this job done at home. Truly appreciate you!
I love these kits. Made the job a lot easier and you don't have to worry about overheating due to air in the system
After a long and very frustrating day of working on the car I just wanted to say, this video saved the day thanks for your content my man. Made the process very easy and you are very professional. Very quality video👌
Glad it helped!
@@akqjtn hi from australia, i have a 2002 subaru wrx, my heater suddenly stopped working, then noticed a leak bottom of radiator , i just changed it installed new one, then coolent, then burping , while burping/bleeding with sealed funnel, engine on , its getting bubbles out but same time water keeps rising and spilling over looking all crazy. heater works off and on mainly off, no smell in cabin of leaks, no damp smell, , whole timing kit installed by mechanic 3 years ago. temp gage goes past the usual under half reading, same time fluctuating , i went changed genuine radiator cap, made it much better, but still not acting right and bubbling in reservoir and coolent rises up to full and more. twice I've heard strange quick like clicking noise at heater erea. no leaks, no head gasket leaks or from thermostat , no milky substange under oil cap, second day in working on it off and on. also had my car on 35 degree drive-way to aid in getting out air bubbles. as if coolent not circulating yet top and bottom radiator hose hot, 2 hoses on firewall to heater not hot, also flushed out with water hose , heater hoses also did a reseverse . I'm really thinking 2 things first heater core has blockage" yet clean water came out for 10 minutes from heater hoses, heater not working, may come on quickly then nothing. I'm thinking also could be thermostat" though 3 years old only, thinking grudgently to bypass heater hoses", or pull out thermostat. what is your opinion??. thanx.
I really appreciate your video. It was very helpful to change a water hose in my STI. Only for the clarity and detailed instructions in this video i did it without several issues. thanks! 🧑🏽🔧💪🏽
Great details. Only video I’ve seen that actually showed the whole process and how long it could take. Thanks!
Awesome step by step video. Keep making awesome content like this. I purchased a no spill coolant filling funnel kit with a flow valve from Amazon which made the job a breeze for this first timer.
Men, you are a blessing... thank you for sharing every details on how to flush the coolant on my wrx. Especially for a guy like me who's not very confident to try this dyi. With this i cannot make mistakes. Thank you... thank you brother. I truly appreciate you.
Best explanation and steps on KZhead. Thanks.
Thank you for this video. I had a coolant leak after installing a turbo on my BRZ. I followed this video to the tee and had my car up and running within 1hr. Thank you
Thanks for the detailed video straight to the point and I'm definitely going to be picking up one of those nifty tools to help with this process
Good video, very informative and easy to see and understand the procedure. Thanks!
Thanks man, side of the road in newburgh Ny watching this and it’s helping us so Much!
Dude this looks easy! installing EGR delete and have to do this, thank you for the video man you're a life saver.
Thanks for the video. Easy to follow along. Helped me burp my system after a heater core flush.
Bro, best video I’ve found on this. God bless you
Good video for properly using the Lisle System (which I just happen to have purchased). Thank you.
Well done my friend. excellent illustration.
Fantastic video, great explanation! First time needing to bleed a system with a burp funnel instead of a valve, and this video was concise and informative.
Omg this is the only video ive seen that explained what that rubber seal is supposed to do. Ive about to give up on this burping BS. Thank you!
best demonstration, very well explained
Great demonstration!!! Thank you very much.
Love that funnel. Just bought one to do a flush! Great invention 👍
Pro tip, squeeze the upper radiator hose then put the plunger in, sucks it down where you wont have any spillage when removing the spill free funnel.
Straight to the point and great explanation 👌
Excellent detailed tutorial!
Perfect explanation. Thank you!
Thanks for watching!
Thank you Thank you for the precise details on how to do this
Thank you! This video was very helpful.
Great video Matt
Dude! Awesome video. Very useful information presented clearly and concisely. Thank you!
Thank you for the video.....worked like a charm on my 2007 Fusion with 2.3L.....these reverse cooling set ups can be a pain.
Am changing my radiator and coolant tank on my STI for aluminum mishomoto brand and this is the exact vídeo i need it for that 😍
Dude best tutorial ever thank you 🤝
Just went to buy one of these funnels. Totally made my experience less frustrating.
Very nice video man 👌🏼
Great video man !!! I will try those steep in my wagon 👍
Cool video, nice info since I'm about to upgrade my radiator.
Oh and yes detailed perfectly sir!
Thank you I burb it from that radiator and my 2002 Impreza wrx start overheating now I know what I did wrong thank you so much for your help you safe me
Excellent tutorial
Great video ...probably the best in this subject.
Thanks!
I kept wondering how much coolant goes on the top reservoir. It’s full! Although I did purge the system through the radiator on a 04 WRX and got it working. Still going to do a second purge today through the top reservoir just to be sure. Great video!
Awesome...very helpful
terrific video. thank you very much!
I just replaced my thermostat and water pump yesterday on my 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4.0 liter and I will be burping it today. I have the burp funnel that came with no instructions, Go figure... Lol 😄 Your video was extremely helpful and very thorough. Thank you
Great Video, Easy to follow instructions, Good Audio Quality, Everything is Super!!!
Glad you liked it!
Nice done!!
Just received my bucket 👍🏻
I did what you said about idling to 2500 rpm after 20 minutes and finally got last air bubbles out. Got nice hot air for winter months thanks to your instructions
I have same problem no heat did u wait till after the 20min of burping and got heater?
Great video!
Very impressive video.👍
You got your self a new sub
Hey brother thanks for taking the time to make this video I”ve seen lots of videos about this topic all over KZhead but with out a doubt this is the best video, everything is very well explained Step by step . God bless you
Thank you, you just fixed my car
Dude your amazing ty for this video ;)
Great video great content 👌
thanks so much. I'll order this kit. got a burp problem after collant system work on my jaguar. I was going to use a coca bottle. this kit should be better to use haha
Great info. Thanks
Thank you for the awesome video! Im doing my 30k fluid change tomorrow plus a coolant flush. Sure subaru says 137,500 miles for first flush, but i think 30k is a nice number or even 60k. I know 75k is the number after the first flush.
Great video! Simple and to the point.
Thanks for the video
Amazing video
Just bought one. Can’t wait to do a flush👍
Dude, this is the best video I have seen on how to do this. I saw a bunch of the before this and they were really bad, you were very concise and clear on your explanation. Thank you very much.
Well done!
Top quality video
You make the best DIY videos! I don't have WRX but I end up watching your videos because you say the things the people Subarus I own don't, plus you are quick. You don't waste time saying and showing unnecessary things.
This is a good video. Very straightforward. I am filling my cooling system today!
Out-standing thanks dude keep up the good work thanks for going over every little detail in the procedure
Thanks very much for sharing this! Great description and nicely detailed!
Wao this clip of your is truely and detailly demonstrate burping. thank you
Great instruction! Thanks for putting this video together.
lol almost blew up the car today I wish I saw this earlier, brother spilt coolant all over my engine bay like a goon. Now I gotta clean it, get new coolant. And do this. Shit. Anyways thanks man! This is going to help
Excellent
Men love ur work and clear explanation of what to do in a Subaru keep up the good work 💪 a fan here
Thanks my friend, appreciate that!
You’re the man
Great video, i have a noob question what coolant do you use?
Top quality video and well step by step explanation… well done friend👍 This month I’m replacing radiator with Koyorad, performance full set of hoses and high pressure radiator clamps. Thanks for the presentation I always enjoy your videos. Cheers. Mike🇨🇦
There are a lot of Subaru burbing videos out there, this one needs to be tagged at the top!
Awesome video. Out of curiosity is the secondary fan supposed to come on without the ac on and what is normal coolant temp during traffic sometimes I hit 207 before the fan comes on
Hi, Thank you 1st.. great video. My 21 sti is running hot stock rad. So gonna replace the rad with a Mishimoto MMRAD-STI-08X one. How many quarts bottles of coolant do I need? And thank you again..
Great explanation, do you not prefill the rad first?
Excellent video mate, thanks for taking the time to share. Cheers
Nice 1 👍
Excellent video. Not only demonstrating the process but also explaining the reasons for doing it.
I did a couple coolant changes on my car. I learned after the coolant settle and still bubbles a little bit Rev it to 4k a couples times to get all the air bubbles out. Now my car doesn't over heat.
Thank you, very thoughall.
Great video. Doing the process, fan cycled once, still burping air, going on 45 minutes, getting alittle worried? No leaks. It's a honda civic 2004.
Still bubbling air, well over an hr.? Got to have another issue? Any ideas? Changed thermostat, no leaks, cooling fan cycled 3 times, still burning air like the beginning?
Most comprehensive and straight forward video I’ve yet to find on the topic. Thank you
thanks!
Great video, exactly what I needed.
GODSPEED good sir
Absolutely the best and to-the-point video out there for this procedure. Thank you. One quick question, would you advise on performing this with the car's front end up on jack stands? Would it make a difference?
Great video man. Perfect once I eventually install that cyl 4 cooling mod
Thank you
Life saver
