His engine...YOUR cooling system. See what I am getting at? And yes, it is NOT an emergency as long as you go short distances and do not overheat it.

You CAN do this yourself, or have someone come help you.

In all reality...you are looking at $30 for the flush and fill kit and the 2 gallons of antifreeze you will need.

MASCOTT

Okay. I was seriously considering doing this myself until you mentioned cutting and "t " fittings and the such

jimmy21669

It is so easy, a caveman could do it....

is it bad to take the rad out and flush it with Dawn dish soap? its what all the guys at my dads work do.

jimmy21669

Long as you leave no residue behind....and as long as it is dawn...I see no problem.

I don't see the point of the dish soap, your dealing with coolant and rusty scale build up, not oily residue.

dukie564

uh...yes? You'll never get all that soap out...

If you can read and understand pictures you are golden. Instructions are on the back of the package. Stroll into wally world and take a look at it. If you feel you can do it after reading through the directions go for it! It would be another notch in your JEEP belt not to mention you would have one up on shirley

dukie564

that too.

If it's really bad - use C-L-R

jimmy21669

With Dawn I think you could. It is used on wild animals for this reason. It comes off easy with little to no residue.

Green2000

did you ask them about cleaning the inside or outside?

a_shirey

when we did it to the ford there were no more bubbles or anything showing dawn left. and it wasnt rusty it was just really dirty for some reason. and we used a flush kit in the coolant for about 100 moles and drained it all and put fresh coolant in.

Green2000

come on Jimmy, these are JEEPs we are talking about not ducks and such

jimmy21669

I do second the CLR...seems to make more sense in this instance. I don't think the dawn will harm it...my opinion....but if there are no benefits.....

a_shirey

inside.
