Attached is a file I did with ABC flow charter that gives the sequence.  It
is about the only way I could understand it.  As far as a too to keep the
RPM up I use a standard W.I.F.E; I'm sure a metric one would work, too.  And
as far as 15 3/4 inches, I over estimate and it hasn't failed me.

Subject:        please help me bleed!

Dear list,
Can someone help me with the proper way (i.e. give me
a little more detail) on bleeding the coolant system.
I know that there is air in the system, so I tried to
bleed it out, but when i follow the bentley
instructions, my van's fan comes on and cools the
system before bubble free fluid runs out. Also, when
the manual calls for a 15 3/4" raise of the front, is
that raised under the tire? And if I am doing the job
myself any tips on getting the rpms up and steady (is
there a tool for that?).

One more question....I plan on replacing all the hoses
and hardware on the cooling system. How long will that
take me?

thanks.
