RE: [Classic Mustang] Radiator flushing

I used a hose flush system where a fitting was screwed into a heater hose and connected to the garden hose, and I ran the engine and the garden hose until it was clear. I think several companies make that little kit, or maybe try e-bay.

Phil,
I was hoping that I cuold first get the fluid to at least start to clear up but looks like I may need to start using the chemical. Thank You.

Rodney, did you use radiator flush?  It's avail in most auto stores.  Follow the directions, and that will do a good job.  If you have severe rust, you may have to repeat that.

Thanks to all who helped me route my heater hoses. Now that thats done
the radiator will not flush clear. I have drained and refilled it 5
times with good warm-ups between draining. My procedure is to fill cool
radiator with water, run to get hot and t-stat opens, cool down, drain
and repeat. Is there a step I'm missing or are the water jackets that
dirty. The water drains a mirky dirty brown color. Any thoughts?

Rodney
