Subject:      Radiator flush
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

I don't remember seeing a posting about how to flush a radiator to get out all the deposits. And what kind of liquid to use to free the deposits up. I can hook up a separate pump with two different hoses to it, so only the radiator would be involved. Do I need a certain pressure to push out the dirt? Do I need to do it both direction? Anyone know anything about this kind of work? Do I need a filter with flush like that? I have tried to hook up the garden hose, but other than the water going through freely, I did not achive any positive result. Maybe I have to soak it with some liquid inside for a day to lift the deposits, then flush? Zoltan
