I think I flushed the whole thing, I disconnected the bottom hose and than ran a hose through the top and ran the truck for 5 or 10 minutes. If so I figured out the reason the coolant wasn't filling was because I needed to jack up the front of the car. As for the reservoir is there an easy way to take it out the only way I'm seeing is two bolts that look pretty difficult to get to. Thanks for your help


That typically doesn't do the best job because the cool water you flush it with doesn't let the thermostat open and flush out whats in the engine block.

Removing the thermostat as well as the drain plug in the engine block just in front of the passenger's side motor mount will drain the most fluid and then you can do a much more thorough flush. Adding a fitting to the heater hose to attach a garden hose helps flush fluid out from that end of the system too. Prestone sells a kit for that.
