water may have come out of the radiator hose but if the clog is in the middle of the radiator then everything would probably look normal when you did this.

well i rule the heater core for sure cause i just did that shiit i need to check the radiator but im sick of spending money on coolant lol but whatever ill recycle and yea usually when the car is runnin and eveything is on and that i look in the puke jug and its movin around in there and when the cars runni the cap is cold but i loosen a little alot of pressure gets shot int the puke jug the i cant see the level of coolant when i add coolant alot of bubbles come to the top thenwhen full it doesnt bubble as much it seems like when i bleed it that everytime theres more air in the system especially the exiting heater core alot of air comes out then when airs most out the hose heats up alot the i get heat but then goes away after a lil bit this is just so frustrating
