2.) Drain coolant (about 1 gallon) until only 1" is remaining in expansion tank when car is level.
I wouldn't drain any water out of the system. You can't put too much water in. If you add too much water, it will just purge itself out of the radiator cap. For what it's worth, with my ERA and expansion tank, the water level is about 1" from the top (not the bottom) of the expansion tank.
