How do I bleed if fast fill is broken?

<span>Can someone help me.  If the fast fill doesn't work. will the air be able to get pushed out of a zone? I came up with an idea because fast fill seems to be broken. Instead of opening hose bib all the way, to open only slighty. Because what seems to be happening when I open on full, is the feeder can't keep up with what's going out and the air isn't leaving or maybe I'm letting in new air?</span>

    Fill

    Fill it with a hose. Watch the pressure so you don't pop the relief.

    Agree in a fix

    Connect a double female hose from a domestic water drain cock to the boiler drain to bypass pressure reducing valve .... But if it was my system , I would replace the valve with new ... Less headaches if you do it right I found ....
    I have enough experience to know , that I dont know it all
