some one suggested getting a 2 ltre plastic coke bottle and filling it with water and upturn it in the top of the radiator
while the motor is running --till all the air is expelled

the gravity does the job for you

other than that recheck all the hose fittings and clamps for drips

how old is the radiator cap
