2000 Lincoln ls bleeder valve, does it connect to the degas tank or coolant reservoir.

Does the bleeder valve add or take coolant from the degas or coolant reservoir. Or is the nipple coming from the coolant reservoir a plug that does not allow any coolant to or from the reservoir?

Bleeder valves are usually fitted to the cooling system to aid refilling and they are released to expel air trapped in the system. Unless air is bled from the system this way it is unlikely it will self-bleed or circulate properly.

Coolant reservoir or degassing tank is usually where the filling point and pressure cap is and a bleed valve would be rather redundant placed there. Not sure what you have there on your car unless it is a blanked off bypass port...

SOURCE: cant find bleeder valve foe coolant system on 96

dr_greg is incorect. The bleeder valve is on the thermastat housing near the intake manifold. Follow the hose from the top of the radiator to the the engine. Look for something that looks like a 12mm head nut with a metal nipple comming through it. If you change your coolant but do not open this valve untill coolant flows from it you may cause an air pocket to remain in your engine, possibly causing your car to over heat.

SOURCE: where is the coolant bleeder valve on 2000

On the engine next to the thermostat housing on most cars. It is a regular flathead screwdriver type screw. if you can't find it. Then slowly , without removing it, turn the radiator cap at operating temperatue. Until you hear it hiss and only coolant will come out. Do this very slowly andd carefully. The water is hot. Be careful.

SOURCE: Location: Coolant Temp Sensor 2001 Lincoln LS V6

It is on the Driver side of engine in between the COP's (Coil on plugs) simply unplug the wire use a 19 or 3/4 deep well socket and unscrew it and put it new one... The whole process should only take 10-15 minutes.

00linc ls v8,when bleeding coolant system what does the term equalize mean when adding coolant in the Degas bottle

Is this the jaguar 3.9 engine? If so, you equalize the coolant by adding thru the Degas bottle with the bleeder screw removed.Here's a link:

Where is the bleeder valve for my 2005 Lincoln Aviator for the cooling system

Newer vehicles don'y have one. Just fill the reservoir half way, until it won't take any more. Start the truck and let it get to operating temperature. When the T stat opens the reservoir will go down add more coolant. I add to about an inch over the hot mark. Then take it for a short drive, making turns both ways. This helps purge out what little air is in it. Let it cool down, recheck coolant level.

Degas tank 2000 lincoln ls v-8

In plain site

You can see the filler cap for the coolant !!

On my 2004 L/S it is near the driver side hood hinge

To remove, you have to remove the 7 push pins
holding the plastic wiper cowl cover on & may have
to use wire ties, as most of them will break & are too
expensive to buy, at a dealer or on the internet (been there)

2002 LS: aHow do I fill radiator in my V8 Lincoln LS...

First- to drain ,you can reach the drain valve,from the pass side,if you lay on the ground and reach up to the radiator. You do not even have to raise the vehicle up
Second- mix Yellow GO5 Coolant about 50/50 or 60/40. Do not use Green in a Ford or Orange GM
To Fill- Remove the front two plastic screw type buttons,from the engine cover
-Remove the cover
The radiator cap is on the front of engine,on top,it is plastic
Remove cap and that is your fill point
Run engine to warm and get thermostat open,as you would with any vehicle
Top off coolant,replace cap
VERY IMPORTANT-next to the Power Brake Booster,and just under it,is a BLEEDER HOSE;to let air out of system. Turn screw slot ,only a little,DO NOT REMOVE SCREW. When coolant runs out close.
Fill-Degas Bottle,to full line,with coolant.
Check the next couple days on resevoir level ( Degas Bottle)

2000 lincoln ls - where is the cooling system overflow container?

I believe it's on the drives side at the fire wall by the hood hinge. It's actually called a degas bottle because coolant flows through it under pressure to onstantly bleed air from the system. Be sure to tighten it as the cap states so it does not leak air in.

2000 Lincoln Ls Heater blowing cool air

You also could have air in your coolant system. You can't just add coolant on these models after you drain the system or let it run low on coolant. The degas bottles on these models also have a flaw, where they crack along a seam. Sometimes coolant will leak, sometimes not, depending on how high the crack is on the bottle. But what it is guaranteed to do is allow air into your system, which can cause havoc with overheating (air surrounds the thermostat so it doesn't open) and keep coolant from flowing, particularly through the highest point in the system: the heater core. There is a heater core bleeder valve attached to a line near the top of the degas bottle (next to the expension line up top) with a plastic, flathead srewdriver face. Turn the heat on high and run the system at idle for 5 minutes. Then open the valve and keep it open until a steady stream of coolant comes out. (It's like bleeding your brakes.) That will clear any air from the system and at least give you peace of mind that this is not your problem. Then run the motor at 2000 rpms, with the heat still on high, for about 5 minutes or until hot air starts coming out. Release the bleeder valve again until a steady stream comes out. Then let the system cool and check your coolant level and fill as needed. I'd pull the degas bottle and inspect it...should have been a recall.
