COOLANT SYSTEM FLUSH
If you're old enough to remember coolant changes before the age of
environmental law, all I can tell you is "everything's changed". Letting
the engine run for 30 minutes, with the radiator petcock open and a garden
hose pumping water into the radiator fill pipe is now seriously illegal.
In most locales, all drained coolant must now be collected and taken to a
licensed disposal facility. If the drained coolant is diluted with a
garden hose, you might have 100 gallons to bring in.
The environmental laws change
everything. What was an easy 20 minute procedure is now a day-long affair,
complete with risks of injury, car damage, and legal difficulties. For
that reason we suggest bringing your vehicle in and allow our certified
technicians to flush your coolant system properly.
