About this deal
It is usually at the lower corner of the radiator on the driver’s side, but if it is difficult to find, consult the owner’s manual.
Flushing the radiator this way is fast and inexpensive, and using the garden hose allows for the process to continue without having to stop after each individual flush. It's a good idea to make use of coolant temperature sensor, to keep tabs on the engine's operating temperature. The cooling system should therefore be properly flushed on a regular basis – when the water pump is replaced at the very latest.I too wouldn't want to bet my engines on a plastic fitting but conceptually the ability to connect running water to flush the system versus the current method of draining fluid, filling with water, running, draining, wash-rinse-repeat until the system is clean is a better solution.
I must say if the seller had used Royalmail as stated in the description postage I'm certain I would have received it.It can create engine scale: Coolant is designed to prevent corrosion in your engine, but complete protection against this isn't possible. Which woud accomplish what I am trying to do, they are purpose built for flushing the system which is what I am trying to do.
