If it ain't broke don't fix it.I planned to just flush it.I already have a flushing adapter since I have to do my Dakota about once a year.I guess they use a smaller tube for heater cores than they used to.I have seen it on older vehicles but it seems like new ones clog more often.I was mostly curious as to whether this was common on the S-series like it is on the Dakota.I think I will flush the radiator also since it has never been done.the truck only has about 55,000 on it.
