After running this process for 25 minutes the coolant expansion tank had stopped letting out coolant shooting through. This entire process ive had the bleeder screw on.

The fan was set to the lowest point and set to 90. Once the gauge reached the middle temp it was hot in the car so the heater is working.

Now my question is that do I need to keep doing this to get all the air out? The bleeder screw is still spewing bubbles out and a little bit of coolant. I drove around the block and the engine sounds good - its shifting well but I have not taken it on to the highway yet because I am not sure if thats gonna put a lot of strain on that bleeder screw. Once parked I opened the hood up again and checked the bleeder screw - thats the second video of it spewing out bubbles and coolant.

Please tell me if you think this may be another problem. There is no leak from anywhere else. I am wondering if the hose that has the bleeder screw may have bad threads on it. But then again the old bleeder screw looked good and so did the washer on it. Again all of this is fairly new within the last 3 months. I am sure when its cold again the coolant level should drop from the amount it threw out but that I can fill again or just do a total flush again but I want that air out and im wondering why there is still air coming out of the screw.
