I want to do a complete coolant flush on my car. Engine block and all. I plan on flushing the heater core while i'm at it. My car is a '93, Can anyone give me complete details on how its done?

 

when i did mine i just unscrewed the plug completely out of the rad and drained the fluid, then i pulled the steam line and heter core line and ran the garden hose through them for about 5 miniutes each and refilled with dex cool. i didnt use any water in the coolant because i didnt know how much water the block holds. if you want the exact right mixture you would have to find out how much coolant the whole system holds and add half that much coolant and the rest water.

Another procedure

 

What do you guys put the coolant in. I know in my 88' caprice it was a real problem with the 16.8 gallaons

 

16 qts, maybe?

I just use a bucket, then transfer that into some other large container for proper disposal.

 

thanks for the replys...i'm starting in on it now
