Guys,i rebuilt the shock on kids kx250. But i think i have alittle air trapped. Can i safely remove bleeder screw to release air with bladder being charged? Also, can i also add morw fluid through this hole if needed? Thanks in advance.

I doubt you can bleed it while the bladder is pressurized without oil shooting out everywhere and not being able to put the screw back in.

With NO charge, oil can be added there at the end of the service, though it usually will have enough and overflow barely at the end of service, in my experience.
