    Yeah, mine is running green from the PO...and to be honest, until I started Lurking on MUD, I didn't know that Cruisers needed to be flushed so often. So, ewith me doing the cooling system and putting a new radiator in it...I'll probably keep green since that's what's there but I'm curious to...

    I went with the DENSO via RockAuto - I wanted to go OEM but the price point was a little more than I wanted AND there was a helluva wait. So, after conferring with the Ih8mud forums of old, I went with the above mentioned DENSO.

    Thanks for the insight! I was just planning on getting a standard flush kit from Napa…but that’s part of my question also, I guess…do I need to do a massive flush when replacing the entire radiator? I planned on using distilled water…it’s pretty inexpensive and I’ve read that’s what most mud...

    Ok, so...not to beat a totally dead horse on the subject...don't hurt me, hahaha! Yes, I read just about every post, old and new, about which radiator fluid to use, BUT...pretty much every post talks about an existing radiator and simply flushing the system and not dropping a new one in AND...
