Due to being impatient and reusing a gasket, I contaminated the water with oil.
I believe I can flush the block easily enough, but the new radiator has some well dispersed oil.
There's both chemicals and tools that use both air and house water that I've seen are readily available.
I planned on pulling the radiator out and flushing separately.
Being a "new" thing to me, I was wondering what you guys have found to be effective.
I tried a straight distilled water fill and drain after the initial drain, but can still tiny oil droplets laying throughout the new radiator coils just looking through the fill hole.
So it's probably pretty bad.
The closest radiator shop is fifty miles, and hoping to save some time.
Thanks
