For me, I got about 10 gallons of fluid out while I was putting distilled water in the system. Roughly 5 gallons of old coolant and the rest was distilled water going into my return bucket. Do with this as you may but I found this to be the most efficient process
Does the car circulate the entire system when you run the bleeding procedure? I wonder why mine only did 2gallons (didn't continue adding while running which I'm learning now is prob pretty bad).
