How do you flush a radiator on a 1996 Mitsubishi Galant?

Answer 1

Hey Kala== First drain the radiator and dispose of the coolant properly.Follow the radiator hose to the engine. There you will find the thermostat housing. Take the thermostat out and stick the housing back on temporarily. Take the upper rad hose off at the radiator. Stick the garden hose in the top of the radiator and start the engine and let it idle. Water will comeout the upper hose. Let it run until it runs perfiectly clear. Shut the engine off and drain the radiator and reinstall the thermostat withthe spring toward the engine and a new gasket. Fill the radiator with coolant and you should have about a 50/50 mix by the time the water left in the block gets mixed in. goodluckJoe
