When the fan kicks on the first time, close the bleeder valve. All the while, making sure the coolant is full in the radiator.

After each cycle of the radiator fan, open and close the bleeder valve within 3-4 seconds. Keep filling the radiator.

After about 4-5 times doing this, you should be good. Put the radiator cap back on and make sure your overflow jug is at the MAX line.
