Hi and thanks for using 2CarPros. Com.
Honestly, I have only ever had luck with these vehicles using a vacuum on the system. Here are the directions specific to your vehicle right from Alldata. There are no options for doing it that traditional way. The attached pictures correlate with these directions. Also, pictures 1 and 2 are the tools needed.
