The Ford Barn - View Single Post - Adverse effect of vinegar block cleaning on aluminum heads?

So....drained the rad.....filled with vinegar and took out for a drive to get it circulating. When I came back there was steam coming out from below somewhere. I just could not find out where. I did forget to close the heating system valve, but when I did the steam stopped. Do I have a problem now ?

Thx....Mike
