It's really helpful if you can get a second person to handle the bleeder
while you stand in back.  When I did the coolant change on my diesel, when
I first revved it up it was all I could do to keep it from sucking the
expansion tank dry.  It was literally pulling coolant into the system as
fast as I could pour it from the jug.  I'd done this myself before,
running back and forth, and kinda/sorta gotten it to work, but with a
helper it was *so* much quicker.
