Antifreeze

As my van is new to me this year (1.9 DG) and the tester isn't showing a lot of antifreeze in it I am going to flush and antifreeze, I have bought my anti freeze from euro car parts and have looked at the wiki and I must say it sounds like a pig to bleed, I have 8 litres of antifreeze which sounds a lot to me but is there any tips or just follow the wiki write up.
Thanks Pete

As Dazco says, folow wiki..when you think its ok, keep checking coolant level every 100 miles or so until you are happy it doesn't need topping up anymore

Plus some air bubbles often work their way out overnight. Did mine on level ground. Trick is to get revs high enough. Put the antifreeze in first, then the water (if you bought concentrate).
