When I was younger first starting to drive and living at "home" we had a radiator shop just across the alley from us. Hung around back there quite a bit. Big part of the business was opening up the radiators and rodding out the crud. Lot of white lime deposits. I had always though our Chicago tap water was pretty good but the guy always recommended distilled water. All I ever use, now.

I am going to check all the things mentioned
1. Gage reading- can you rent the gun to read temps?
2. Seals
3. Fan clutch- whats the best way to test this
4. 50/50 mix with distilled water
Question: Is there a product that I can flush my radiator system with to get rid of all the white deposites?
I am going to hold off on the electric fans until I have finished all the above.
Thanks

I don't remember the product number, but the chevy dealer will sell it. It is a powder you dump in the cooling system, run it for 30 minutes or so, rinse, run, etc...takes a couple hours to get iit done, but the best stuff out there
