Flushing Cooling System
in General Tech Discussion
7 years ago
I am in the middle of the 5 year rubber replacement. I just replace the radiator hoses which means I drained the coolant. In the Line Maintenance manual, 05-20-00, page 16, it says to flush the system when ever you replace the coolant.
On 12-20-00 page 26, paragraph 9.3 it says the system is flushed using pure water at a pressure of 2 bar (29 psi.).
What device do you you to flush the system at this psi?
I would think a water hose would be close to the 29 psi but water pressure varies from system to system . It would not be that accurate and I do not know how important that is.
Thank you,
Bob
