[QUOTE="JD3020, post: 663533, member: 373"] I flushed the system with some of the radiator flush stuff from NAPA, may not be the most ideal thing in the world but it got the job done, and my engine is running at its normal temps and i've got great heat in the cab, so nothing is clogged up. My engine was nasty inside, and the water that came out of it was horrible. Looked like a really really bad chocolate milk. And it smelled horrible. But i doubt i still got the system that clean even with more than 15 gallons of distilled plus some tap water. Planning on adding a coolant filter and may do another flush this fall. And i've solved the bad rattle at shut-down. Finally quit raining this morning so right before class i crawled under and got to looking. Sure enough the damn bolts for the downpipe flange were just hanging, lost both nuts. LOL But i've still got a faint grinding sound at idle out of gear, i've got the inspection plate off today and it sounds like its coming from the converter. The downpipe doesn't appear to be rubbing anywhere although i noticed i've got a horrible vibration in the brake pedal, which i had noticed when i first installed my exhaust a few years back and the DP was rubbing.
