I am having the all too common air in the lines issue on my marauder (started after having the coolant changed). Does anyone know of a good repair shop in houston that has experience in doing these?

Top off coolant from the coolant crossover tube.
Do not take it off when the motor is hot.

Those are good instructions in the link, if a bit anal. I would suggest if you're going to do it to go find a Sears or Harbor Freight and buy a little 1/4" breakover bar. Mine wasn't too bad, but a lot of folks have reported that the bleeder screw is VERY tight, to the point of breaking a small ratchet. What part of Houston are you in?
I am going to give it a shot, seems pretty straight forward. I hope the filler tube cap does not give me to much trouble. I will take your recommendation of buying the 1/4 breakover bar...I stay in Pearland.
Good luck. I'm right on the border of Pearland and Friendswood.
Hey Pearland/Friendswood guys...before moving to Wimberley now nine years ago, we lived in southeast Houston (where I grew up) and my father was the news editor for The Houston Post newspaper for forty years or so...if you ever get up here in the hill country, give a shout out.
I had a similar problem with air in the cooling system when I changed my fluids last year or so...but followed the instructions the folks here are talking about and burped it so now no problems...you can do it...pretty simple really...but do watch that plug...mine was not very tight actually.
Hope it works out for ya.
