If you are going to be doing anything with your cooling system that will require you to bleed the system, I recommend you buy a vacuum cooling system fill kits (or bleeder kits or whatever they are) from UView.

Bleeding the system is not only a PITA!, but it's also environmentally unfriendly, and expensive. I've blown out over $50 worth of anti-freeze so far with no sign of it getting better. That's 4 bleeds and over 3 gallons of mixed anti-freeze.
