Would the manifest even tell you where in the close to a mile of train cars the meth car was located? How would they have known so far in advance where to bury the containers?

I was thinking the same thing at the time, I imagine they used some creative license since there is no way they would know in advance where the car would land and the odds of it ending up perfect are pretty high. Even if the train would have stopped sooner the car would have been in different location.

They were doing both at the same time, sucking the product out the bottom while filling the top with water. The gauge he had was counting up to 1000 gallons but they were only putting 920 gallons of water back in. Also when he yelled to Jesse to stop he shut off the valve under the train car and the liquid had begun to spill over the top of the tank below. He may have been concerned that stopping too soon would throw the weight off though.
