COOLANT SYSTEM
BLOWING OUT RADIATOR FINS
REVERSE FLOW FLUSHING
1. At the engine, disconnect the hoses.
2. Make sure the radiator cap is on tight.
3. Using a hose clamp, clamp a flushing gun onto the lower hose.
4. Turn on the water and fill the radiator.
5. To keep from damaging the radiator, apply air pressure slowly and
carefully.
6. Shut off the air pressure, refill the radiator with water, and reapply the air
pressure. You will need to repeat these steps until water flushed from the
radiator runs out clear.
7. Inspect and clean the radiator cap.
8. Inspect and reconnect the hoses.
9. Refill the radiator with coolant.
NOTE
NOTE
Make sure radiator is cool before blowing out the
radiator fins with compressed air. Be careful that the
radiator fins are not bent by the compressed air. Any
fins that are bent should be straightened.
In GM engines, use only long life engine coolant that meets
GM specification number GM6277M or equivalent. This
coolant is orange in color and is readily available under
various trade names such as Dexcool™.
ATTENTION!
Never add green colored ethylene glycol coolant in a
cooling system that uses orange colored coolant.
Engine damage may occur. These two coolants are not
compatible.
