HELP! radiator bleed , thx

ok guys today i changed my water pump and i filled my radiator with water
plz note that my air relief bleeder screw is broken (previous owner) so its closed at all times.
Now i filled my radiator,left the cap off and started the car
heated it up till about normal temp..
the water is barely moving?? :ugh: the top radiator line gets hot and the one below is slightly warm.
also i put the heater on hot and full fan and it blows cold??? thermostat?
i swear right before my waterpump leaked, i put the ac on hot and it got hot.
what can it be??? i didnt run the car long enough to see if it overheats.
I tried raising the front of the car to get all the air out whiched seems to work as the radiator burped out a bit. any other ways to help bleed also?

Do you guys think i should change the thermostat? i have one already but its late and i want your guys help

BTW i am using water to flush firstly, i am goin to put coolant when i clean the system , just its not flowing so good

i checked my thermostat and its good, but i replaced it anyway
i am stumped on how to bleed the system
i filled it again started it with the front of the car raised and as it gets hot hot it burps alot and alot ( i'm stillin usin water for now ) but my ac blows cold even though i set it on hott what does this mean?
 
did you try reving it the radiator water barley moves unless you rev the motor and just dissconect the bottom hose to bleed it

ps you dont really bleed radiators its not like a clutch or breaks that it cant have air in the system everything just coms out
 
thx bro i filled it with coolant and reved it etc.. i drove it and no overheating soo i'm cool...
but my ac blows cold on hot?? do u know wat this means?
someone told me i didnt let all the air out and some maybe trapped in the heater core??
how do i get that out?
i did fill the coolant and put the heater on hot?
