[QUOTE="Tragic00, post: 7225875, member: 588510"] Hello all, I recently posted here asking about flushing a cooling system. I ended up back flushing it at first, which helped some but not enough. So from there I used Prestone Super Flush (just sodium citrate), cleaned a lot of brown stuff out, back flush 3-4 times total. Which I can still see stuff gummed up in the radiator fins. It looks as if a lite brown playdoe style stuff. I know prior to me doing this flush, it prolly hasn't been done in at least 10 years (it's a 95), besides just adding water or coolant. My question is, what can I use that will be stronger, but not damaging to my engine to clear it out? I'm starting to look around at prices on raidiators and heatercores. But I am just not looking forward to changing the heater core. [/QUOTE]
