First remove cap from over flow tank add anti freeze to full mark leave cap off and start vehicle and let idle once vehicle starts to reach operating temp and thermostat starts to open anti freeze level in tank will drop add more anti freeze to full mark then put cap back on. That should do it.

It helps to incline the vehicle by parking facing up a hill, so radiator is elevated above engine. Someone did a pretty good instructible here: http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-Burp-your-cars-cooling-system/
