I remember you saying there is no heater so you are probably good since there is no other places to keep air trapped except in the engine. sounds like you got it this time.

There was plenty of truck rev going on lol. I'll re-check the rad and put a little fluid in the overflow tank to cover the bottom of the hose. I'll top up as necessary.
