Default C6 Radiator
What is the best way to flush a C6 Radiator??? I got a high mileage car and have recently noticed higher temps... Coolant temp reaching 214-216 and Engine Oil Temps hitting near 228...

Long are gone the times when this car would remain around 216 oil and 189 Coolant...

Several of us tried to point that out in the other thread but I guess he didn't believe us
