Hi all, with summer finally here it's time to do a cooling system flush on my 97 D1 (140,000 original miles). Pointers or how to hints greatly appreciated. Summertime, Summertime is Here! |

make sure you pull the two drain plugs low on the block - one on each side towards the rear. pain to get at, but I just did it and it is possible with perseverance. then change out your thermostat and you can run water in the thermostat hole and out the other two. |

And this takes care of flushing the radiator also? |

no, just the block. remove the top radiator hose, run the water in, remove the bottom radiator hose and let it drain out. |
