I have an 86 635 and I'm having a lot of trouble bleeding the cooling system. Ive finaly got coolant coming out of the bleed screw consistantly but theirs no heat out of the vents. The temp gauge is only about half way up and the cap on the tank is still venting. please help thanks in advance

Do you mean the temp gauge is only half to running temp? What about heater core is it in good shape?

What do you mean by "cap on the tank is still venting"?
