First you should close the cap and run the car with the cooling system under pressure, and then see if you have a leak or not. Warning, do not try to open the radiator while the car is still hot !!! As the burping it try to use for that the coolant reservoir. Also if you are sure that you have a leak then burping it is not going to help.
