Can't refill coolant after draining rad & block. HELP?

I'm having trouble with what should be easy. I drained coolant by pulling lower radiator hose and pulled engine drain plug. Per Bently, I attempted to fill by adding coolant to expansion tank and opening the bleed valve. But instead of air coming out, coolant comes out. There must be some way to get coolant back into the engine block and radiator... what could I be missing?
Thanks in advance.
