Hi guys, I got the carbs cleaned up this weekend on my 99 SRX. I turned off the valve on the heads to the heated carbs before I pulled the coolant lines to the carbs. When I pulled the coolant lines off the carbs, some of the coolant came out of the clutch side tube as well as the mag side tube.
Do I need to bleed the cooling system of any air that may have gotten into the system, or is it not even a big deal? If I need to bleed the cooling system, does anyone have any good directions on how to do that? Thanks for helping answer all my noobie questions. Next year will be much easier!!!

I have never had to bleed the system on my srx when pulling the carbs. If you want to you need to raise the rear in the air and remove the seat. There is a bleeder screw on top rear of the tunnel in the rear exchanger. Remove it until the air escapes.
