Yes, one from heater matrix - black plastic thumbscrew type, and one by thermostat to the right of the cylinder head.

Rad cap off, heater on maximum, let her run to temperature and bleed in turn. Check a few times as air takes time to circulate depending on how much is in the system. Make sure fan comes in and out, might stay on longer at first, but should cut out after a few seconds when bled correctly depending on ambient temperature.

Finally, make sure you check your coolant level as you are bleeding, and then again after a few runs when complete as it will most like have dropped.
