Seriously, your right, a couple of "heat cycles" generally does work to get the air out, just someting you need to keep an eye on after any kind of major water lose.

The XJS was perhaps the worst I ever worked on. Just a royal pain to get the air out and SO sensitive to over heating if you didn't get it right! They were about the only car I know off where you HAD to have a thermostat in the engine. It would CERTAINLY over heat without the TWIN T-Stat's in place!
