I've had better luck with mine bleeding with it cold with the engine off. Have you replaced the thermostat yet? Also, the radiator can build up deposits on the hot inlet side & choke the flow.

Thanks for all the input but the oil is just fine nice and gold color, the fan clutch has been replaced and it has some resistance when the engine is cold. I have not checked the upper rad hose yet but i will soon. The engine runs fine while im driving but as soon as i stop and dont have the blower on hot then the car starts to kreeeeeeep to the hot zone and when i turn on the blower the niddle goes back to the middle its not so bad right now because it cold outside but in the summer it gets worse, this problem happened one day i changed the coolante. When i shorted the aux fan i just took the two wires off the switch and attached them togetter the fan was going like a mad cat and the temp still did not go down only when i turn the heat controls on and set the blower motor to max. THANKS FOR ALL THE HELP I HOPE I CAN FIX THIS PROBLEM.!!!!!!
