    The fans turn on at almost 220 degrees. One way to kick the fans on is to turn the AC on for a second...it will kick the fans on for a few minutes.

    As far as all the air, just do your best. I was trying to think of a way to adapt some kind of a bleeder screw to the thermo housing, but I have not come up with a way. If anyone has any ideas on this, lemme know.

          you did install the thermostat in the right direction right? the 'pellet' side toward the engine block.

            If I remember correctly, I think u also have to turn the interior heat on to full heat, so the heater core is also flushed & filled w/coolant.
