Coolant Flush Question

Post by kamb » Sat Feb 22, 2014 10:26 am

Guys

what are your thoughts on flushing the radiator with a syphon device rather than using the drain plug at bottom of radiator??

Id didn't think the internal construction of a radiator would allow you to get a syphon deep enough. Use the plug and let gravity do the work.
