I just did that 7 times. (no radiator flush) going in the coolant tank and out the bottom of the radiator. Cycling the engine up to temp, with the thermostat open and washing.
Now I've done it all day and refilled with fresh coolant. I'm done for at least right this second. I was trying to improve a situation and I'm tired now. LOL. There is a leak I noticed on the hose just above the lower radiator hose which is a smaller hose at the junction. The junction seems to be leaking where it connects to the small hose. Nothing major, but it is. I don't know what the inside of those black plastic junctions look like. Do I have to buy an O-ring to fix the leak there?
I hope that bleeder screw also purges when overfilled because I kept getting coolant on top there after each drive. (knowing it was overfilled)
and more fun with copper/brass flakes..........
