If your bleed screw breaks, don’t panic. Advance auto parts has two of them for $4. If it’s me, I’d go ahead and replace them as insurance.

thanks for that. that's a good thought. I did think about something like that but I always thought air would suck back into the system .now when I started up on high idle I'll have heat but as soon as it drops down to regular idle it cools back down.really appreciate all your help Rover Owners.
Photos of both bleeder screws attached. The bleeder valve/fill point I can’t get a photo of right now as it is under the air box on the front of the engine. It sits above the water pump.

@scott schmerge would you happen to know the part number or name of the assembly in your lower photo -hard plastic with bleeder? I am trying to replace pipe and bleeder and cannot find this anywhere on any diagram. thanks-
Likely, yes.I just replaced water pump as well, read all of this info and nada. Will not bleed. Let it sit over night as well. Drove it half a block and it got hot. Air pocket? Was not getting hot before the job. Swapped pumps because it was making noise.
