Re: radiator/engine flush

The best way(for me) is to remove the 2 block plugs and flush it out as good as possible.
All the sludge settles in the bottom rails of the block and insulates it from the cooling system.
The heater core holds sediment also.
If you have a freeze plug out,there's another good chance to flush it out.
This sludge is why machine shops boil blocks,along with getting the oil galleries clean too.
Mike.
