Radiator transmission lines/coolant flush
'97 buick Skylark V6 3.1ltr
the radiator has a line at the top and bottom for transmission. i am going to flush the system and am supposed to attach a clear hose where the tranny fluid goes back to the transmission. so is it the top or the bottom? Should I switch from orange Dex-Cool to standard green? I have read that Dex-Cool is corrosive. Though maybe they have fixed it from the old versions? If I should switch. So there is a hose that goes from the coolant reservoir then 'tees' to the bottom of the radiator and to the wate pump. Then there is a hose on the other side about halfway that I guess comes from the thermostat. Since my heater core has been bypassed I am not going to get a kit. I am thinking just keep the reservoir filled with the radiator hose on the thermostat side unhooked and run the engine until the water comes out clear. thanks for any info. |
