Verifiedhi my name is canuck and i would like to offer you some excellent service. i believe that since you have had the addition that air has been trapped in your system. likely the traditional bleeding of air will not be successful. there is a very good chance that you will have to bleed by opening up joints throughout the system where air can be trapped. it can be quite tedious but with a strong effort you should be able to get all the air out and have a perfectly functioning system. thank you so much for using justanswer! canuck
