flushing cooling system?

how do you flush a cooling system with no cap on the rad. do you just run water into the tank then it is sucked in to the rad. or do you disconect hoses for your inlet/outlet?

thanks

it will be easier that u disconnect hoses because if there is junk on the radiator or monoblock

that junk will come out easier cause the hoses have a bigger diameter

and also the water will come out freely

also removing the hoses will give u a very good oportunity to inspect them

is alittle more work but is worth it
