Q: mac wrote i was assuming a cooling system flush was always a chemical flush where you flush it out with a special cleaner the shops around here all generally charge around $100 for a flush but when i asked the shop that i chose to use a shell station if its chem. flush he said no thats about $20 more $120. he said which one you want... i said i dont know which one i need. i told him its been around 4 years since the the last drain/replace....then he quickly looked inside opened the cap for 1 second and said youre fine just get regular flush. so i did that. whats your opinion on this is a non-chem flush really any different than a drain and replace he said yes because it drains it from the engine block as well as from the radiator. thanks. one of the purposes of a flush is to get out rust scale debris etc that tends to build up over the years. the other purpose is to replace the antifreeze that gets old and doesnt work as well anymore. a drain and replace or non-chem flush will theoretically remove the old fluid and replace with new. and just that. a chemical flush first places a cleaner in the system then its run for a while dissolve and mobilize the crud so it can be removed. then a flush and replace is done. helps to prevent athersclerosis in the system i do a chemical flush and fill every 2 years or so. -- ..bob arrived 2006 fxdi red. 1997 hd fxdwg - turbocharged stolen 11/26/05 in denver 1hd1gel10vy3200010 co license j5822z 2001 dodge dakota qc 5.9/4x4/3.92 1966 mustang coupe - daily driver 1965 ffr cobra - 427w efi damn fast. .
