Topic: flushing heater core

[nofearblackstar]

i dont know how often you guys do this but you should think about doing it

my heater core was clogged beyond anything i would have thought . i had the hose on full blast on one end and was getting a trickle on the other

after going from inlet to outlet about five time that thing just blasted out a huge clump of dirt .

my heater is now like night and day . soooo hot

hey i was old by the last boss of the rad shop i work in to flush your cooling system every two years,
as for flushing  we have this ''Y'' nozle that has a 2 hoses one air one water so we can ''blast'' the water though the system flushing it out.

I did same thing to my heater core, same result, and did same to my engine block , same result lots of crapola, that and new all aluminum racing radiotor from summit, water pump, stainless hoses, and new thermostat, have not seen temp go over 195 even in hot florida summer, so much better.   also found way to make old rustic resivoir look like new, get some pool acid and let it soak in there for few hours , then flush , just remeber to where gloves, mask and all that!
