Engine coolant

[stone_mound_camaro]

car: 94 3.4L auto.

I'm checking my fluids and when i check my coolant, there is sludge on the dipstick. Honestly it looked like my car had diarrhea and took a shit on fluid level stick. I know that can't possibly be normal. I think i need a radiator flush. Anyone know how much that will run me or if thats even the problem?

Yeah, get it flushed. No idea how much that'll cost. I've been procrastinating on getting it done myself. Just make sure you stick with the green radiator coolant.
