question about coolant

so i replaced the thermostat and filled up the coolant and bleed the system but when i turn off my car the coolant hose that goes over the supercharger goes empty and has no coolant in it. so my question is is that normal or do i still have air in my system

thanks for advice

if its fully bled i would think that means no air pockets/bubbles in the system

If your looseing coolant out of that hose, then you probably still have air in the system. It'll have air, or coolant in it, or the atmosphere of the earth will crush it.

Well it can change that fast it depends on how long the cars been running cause the thermostat does open and close as it gets hotter and colder. One second you have cold coolant sitting there then it opens and slams shut real fast. The only way to truliey get all the air our is use a vacuum system on the car and let it suck all the coolant back in to it. There's a few other way but I won't be going in to detail about that.
