I would go ahead and fill up the filter to reduce the amount of hand pumping. I always take out the passenger side wheel well liner to make things easy. I have an electric lift pump on my truck so I put it on dry turn the key on and open the bleed screw. Use a socket on the bleed screw instead of the screwdriver. After many times with a screwdriver that plastic slot will get worn out.
