first, have the car situated so the nose is slightly higher than the tail. then, you have to have the engine fully warmed up. then, you have to have the heater turned on the highest heat setting, with the fan on high

make sure you actually have a bleed screw in there, and not just a regular bolt. i have seem cars where somebody swapped that out.

i have found that leaving the cap off for the first bit can help. also, raising the rpms a bit at the beginning can accelerate the process, but you have to go back to idle once you get things moving.

however, it sounds like you have a stuck thermostat, and not a bleeding problem
