Hopefully your issue is not serious.

You don't NEED that.

There are many on here who have done it without that. I replaced my water pump and didn't use any special tools. I remember jacking up the back as high as possible when filling it and running it with the bleeder valve open for a while. I don't remember the exact steps, but the procedure can be found on here.
