Heater hose inlet with bleeder from Z1 Offroad - anyone tried it?

My heat is acting up again (not warm when the car is idle) and I'm tired of doing the burping procedure to fix it.


I am looking at using the above heater hose inlet with the bleeder screw on it. Does anyone have experience with this? In my head it makes the bleed process ridiculously easy, but does anyone know what that process looks like with this part?

I have it, it’s sitting in my toolbox lol. Will maybe install soonish since I’m going to be doing a bunch of work.

Just installed recently myself but haven’t done the bleed process with it. I replaced both hoses so I used a funnel attached to the radiator to do the whole system bleed.

I just installed mine. Replaced both heater hose in & out, thermostat and coolant. I use a Lisle funnel for burping, so I didn't have to bleed but I did loosen the screw while it was all sealed up and warm and it did squirt a little fluid out. No air, just blue coolant.
