Guys,
Just replaced my secondary radiator, and realized the coolant in the main radiator is 2 years old now (~25K miles). I'd like to flush and fill over the holiday, but was wondering if there was some special technique for these? My proposed method, which I've done on my other vehicales:
Drain truck
refill with distilled water
run truck until hot
drain
Repeat this process until the drain runs mostly clear, then refill with 50/50 and add coolant additive.
Is this an acceptable method or should I be careful about upsetting a true 50/50 mix?
