What is the correct way to bleed a dragon rmk? Idk if I’m doing it right but I bled the cooling system with the front up but don’t know if I did it correctly, air came out and coolant was going out of the bleed screw and the temp goes up and there seems to be lots of pressure build up to have coolant go out of the overfill tube.

Maybe you didn't get all the air out of the tunnel coolers. Can you feel any heat on the tunnel when it warms up? Try bleeding it again with the front lifted about 3 feet. If you overfilled it with coolant it will push out of the overflow also when it warms up.

I used to lift mine up about 3ft in the front, leave the cap off the bottle bleed screw open, run the sled for a while and squeeze the hoses to help burp the system
