Hi Folks,

Has any one had any experience in getting rust flakes out of the radiator. I have a car in my shop that had been sitting a long time my customer recently purchased. The radiator was stopped up and he had a radiator shop rod it out. After a few hundred miles, the radiator stopped up again.

He brought the car to me and I found a lot of loose rust in the block, some of which found its way back into the radiator after it was cleaned out.

I am de-rusting the inside of the block with Evaporust and was wondering if anyone had experience using Evaporust in a radiator to dissolve rust flakes.

What is your experience?

Thanks in advance for your replies,

Chris W.
