Remove the glow plugs and bump it over a bit at a time first. You'll know how much coolant was in there. It doesn't take much at all to hydrolock an engine, afterall, liquid doesn't compress. After you count 4 or 8 squirts from the right side then you can let it crank normally. The other thing you might want to do is disable the fuel pump, FICM, and PCM by pulling the fuses. That way you don't get fuel injected while you are cranking.
Oops.
Too late. I wish you'd come along a little earlier. Pull the fuses...uuugghhhh. Common sense escapes me, once again.
