Hey JB,
If you want to use rad flush then fine, it usually does a great job
of cleaning the system as its mildly acidic. BUT if you (or a
previous owner) have used a soluble rad leak sealer, then the rad
flush stands a very good chance of stripping it out of the system and
from the cracks that it may be sealing. So when you start-up you can
likely get that hot anti-freeze whiff that usually spells trouble.
Please be aware, though its easy enough to put the sealer in the
system again, and is often the preferred way to cure any heater
matrix weeps if that's a current problem for you.
Now I'll come back under your stone again to keep you company, you
may have noticed I disappeared 10 days ago - have been to Sweden to
check-out the Agnetha lookalikes on the streets of Stockholm, a great
tonic for an old man like me
Cheers
