What about the thermostat? Don't you have to remove it first in order to get proper flow? Also, what about the heater core?

This is the hose that comes from the radiator to the water pump. It is the lower hose located on the dirvers side front of engine going to the water pump. Leave all other hose and caps connected. 3) Turn on the water and caputre the coolant that is coming out of the radiator hose. When the water being collected is clear of coolant and sedimaent (About 15 gallons) the system is flushed. 4) Replace radiatior hose. 5) Remove hose and install cap provided with flushing system onto the tee (if preferred, remove tee and replace with short section of metal pipe.)
