Airlocks

Hello
I have a probable airlock in my engine.
This happened the last time I had to add water/anti freeze and I wondered if there was a way to avoid it happening, or an easy way to remove an airlock (where does it occur and can a bleed valve be fitted etc…)
I am aslo unsure as to what the corrcet water capacity on a 16/80 engine should be.
The book states 5 galllons but at best I can only get 3 gallons in (2 at the moment with the airlock).

Any suggestions please?

Regards
Chris
