Time for the annual Coolant string

[Sarge]

Well....had the GTO flushed and filled yesterday. I love those B&M machines. Pop the top radiator hose off....hook it up....idle the engine and the car comes up to temp....turn the heater on full blast...and watch the old stuff come out in one bucket and the fresh distilled water/Dexcool going in.....total flush....5 minutes and not a drop on the ground or in the engine bay.....
So....fellow GTO dudes.....you flushing your coolant this fall?

where'd you go, and how much?

I've never done it, never had a car long enough to need it. Exactly what do I need to check on, before they attempt it?

Ancira Pontiac...$100 bucks....I do it just to keep the coolant and cooling system at optimum performance.....once a year.....

With 900 miles on the car, and a new motor being thrown in ! No, Sarge! No coolant.

Yeah...water out of a well from Allen Nelson backyard with about a quart of DexCool
I think I did the right thing
