when flushing the block, you should restrict the bottom hose so the water backs up through the system, otherwise all your flushing is the waters path of least resistance if that makes sense. Your likely missing more then half of the system.

I flushed my system a few times on my ZJ. Was clean but had a lot of scale and other buildup that I could see. Dumped half a gallon of cleaning vinegar in the system and the rest distilled water. After letting it run for a few days, I drained and refilled with water and couldn't believe the amount of buildup that came out. Like you said, it looked like chicken water but times 100. Thank you for the video!

@unitedwestand5602 4 жыл бұрын

Easier way to flush the whole system is just open/remove the petcock put hose in de-gas/reservoir to keep it full while draining start the car and let it idle until it reaches operating temp. Then the thermostat will open and you can rev it a little while keeping an eye on the temperature gauge and then shut the engine off after a few minutes. Remove the water hose let the water drain from the petcock then reinstall. Fill with distilled water and concentrate coolant at about 70% coolant because there is water left in the heater core/block so once it mixes it’ll be close enough to 50/50. Easy 👍🏻

Side note, when doing this for overheating Its also a good time to spray/blow out the debris from the radiator fins. Spraying or blowing from the backside of the radiator towards the front to remove the grass, dirt, and debris that collects in the fins over time. It can really make a huge difference, especially on older vehicles that have collected a lot of debris. Just a thought.

From someone that has worked on all there own car maintenance for many years I do like your video. I do it the same way many times as you showed in your video. I have a good pointer to share with you and the others. Before doing the antifreeze flush and change find out what your cooling total capacity is and when you do the refill put in half the total capacity of undiluted antifreeze first before you add any distilled water. This way you end up with a 50/50 mixture of coolant and water. Its that simple.

Just go to an auto supply and pick up a Prestone engine flushing kit. Splice the appropriate tee into the heater outlet hose, put the discharge spigot in the radiator filler neck. Now connect your garden hose to the tee you put in the heater hose, turn the water on and start the engine. Let it run for about 10 minutes or so. Drain the water, disconnect your hose, and put the cap on the tee. Remove the discharge from the filler neck and refill the system with coolant.

We need a video on how to install a drain petcock with a hose so you can drain every drop directly into a bucket. I'm tired of getting radiator showers as well. Since I've pulled engines 4 or 5 times you would think I would have done that by now. Also, another good reason to use only distilled water is electrolysis. That's where the rust in an engine comes from (especially if the engine is iron, and depending on where you live tap water's conductivity can vary greatly). Tap water (or any non-stilled water) has particles in it that make it electrically conductive. You actually get current flowing through the coolant system since all of the grounds for the vehicle end at the block. Electrons actually flow from the negative into the positive.

@bothomas8415 5 жыл бұрын

Don’t worry about clearing out the water, check this out. Let’s say your system holds 4 gallons of 50/50. What you do is pour 2 gallons of strait antifreeze in , then fill the rest up with water until it’s full. That way you know you got all the antifreeze in and it’s has a perfect 50/50 mix.

@ApartmentKing66 2 жыл бұрын

Except that if you've still got old crud-filled coolant in your system, the old will mix with the new and you'll be wasting both time and coolant. Besides, with water and coolant still in there to begin with, you won't be able to get all 4 gallons in and your balance won't be 50/50.

Find the capacity of the coolant system and make sure you use half of that much concentrated coolant. You don't need to make any 50/50 unless you bought a half a gallon more than you needed and you want to keep it for topping off but Ive never needed to top mine off in two years so you might just be storing the 50/50 for years.

The only thing you got wrong is that the coolant usually goes from the engine, into the heater core and returns into the water pump (or sometimes into the outlet side of the radiator which then returns to the water pump via the lower radiator hose). If you flushed it from the engine side you didn't back flush it like you said you should (which is the correct way to do it)

when flushed and clean water still left in the engine simply use concentrate instead of 50/50 cuz air will not push all the water out think about it as soon as air will make room to pass over water it will do so and rest of the water will stay on the bottom of the block

@aegixxer1 7 жыл бұрын

you can simply leave the cap off, turn the heater to hot and run it up to temp. once the thermostat opens, it'll burp out any remaining air. then add any needed coolant, cap it off, top off the reservoir and you're done. this only applies to open loop(non renix) systems and those that have the cap as the highest point.

@Lonewlf7676 7 жыл бұрын

I usually use a plastic funnel that is cut off to fit the radiator fill hole diameter and not bottom out on the core. I thereby make the filler the highest point with fluid in it and let it burp that way. There ARE some times on some engines I have to crack a provided bleeder valve, but overall it works nicely.
