suck on the outlet hose to get coolant into the housing, and plug with your thumb. then turn the pump on. be careful not to suck in any coolant (as most addatives arent good for you lol).

This is a good reason to have the res above your pump. I always had the res in The Rock setup so the output on the bottom of the res went straight to my pump input, which was a good 6" below the res. Made it a no brainer for filling the system.
