Coolant: How to bleed air out after removing throttle body

I removed the entire throttle body, disconnected the cables, etc. and really cleaned both sides of the butterfly plate, etc. as well as the IACV. However, when I removed the throttle body, one of the hoses leaked out some coolant. I suppose I should somehow bleed the system to remove the air...

So, how do I do this? Or is it necessary?

Not necessary...just connect again, run it and check the level. Shouldnt be low at all

No worry. Just drive and the system should bleed itself.

I did this a year ago and no problems.
