[QUOTE="Right-arm fast, post: 6330064, member: 2032"] Thanks Tinman, The radiator sprung a slight leak which is the reason for taking it out in the first place. I put the airline in the through the bottom hose fitting too to try to loosen up the layer of rust/crap that is sat in the bottom and then blocked it off and filled the rad full and then let it flood out a few times, which worked well. However I have done this probably 6 times and still plenty of orange water comes out after the airline . I wanted to use something that might have an internal cleaning effect through the tubes as well as the bottom tank. That could be put in whilst the engine was running. The only thing I have in the workshop is a bottle of Sulphuric acid for unblocking drains! Perhaps dishwasher tablets are the things to use ? [/QUOTE]
