engine flush
Has anyone done an engine flush? Sometimes I see the reservoir with brown dirty water. I think it keeps on clogging up the radiator.
if you mean your rad is clogged then your looking for a rad flush. you can
get any jiffy lube or whatever your drive through lube shops are for like 30 bucks. 10 minutes job and its done.

you mean brown coolant? did you check oil? does it look milky? maybe a sign of blown head gasket

Re: engine flush
Yea, you're talking about a radiator flush rather than engine flush. Brown discolored coolant usually indicates old coolant and rusty corrosion/scaling in the cooling system. You can get a professional power flush or for DIY, try a bottle of rad flush from any autoparts store. Just be sure to follow the flush-mftr directions and be sure the system runs clear before refilling with fresh coolant.lucky13 wrote:Has anyone done an engine flush?
