Oh it most certainly did, I had all my heater hoses off and I watched coolant drain out of the the core. Sorry, not trying to prove you wrong, just stating what happened.

I do know that some, not all, engines use bleed screws, usually they are on the top of the thermostat housing. I still never use them, and I never had a problem bleeding the coolant with the "time" method I use. Yes, I know that there are quicker ways to bleed coolant, but my method is a fool proof way of getting every last air bubble out of the system. It may take 2 days but it works.
