I have a question. In the video, you mention to flush the cooling system in reverse so that any seaweed or impeller blades get removed, and not pushed further in. Good thinking, and I agree. You also are flushing both engines in the same loop of hoses. Wouldn't the seaweed and/or impeller blades be moved to the second engine?

so you take out all the zincs. dose that solution damage any rubber?

Allen, would you post the pump make and model you used? Also is that 1" hose you are using? Thanks Bill

Haii Mr Allen Pollitt . I am caterpillar worker from malaysia. i need to know what item you used to clean the heat exchanger ? because right now im cleaning 2 heat exchanger because the engine is overheat to 110c at 100% load . i already do the back flush using normal water but i still doubt what im doing because what came out of the inlet pipe is not very convincing. i maybe have to disassemble it to look inside of it and clean it up. if can, please give me your email so i can send some picture of the heat exchanger and what i found inside it. thanks
