flush

Good morning & merry early Christmas everyone. Have a 1994 Land Cruiser. Started overheating on inclines. Was fine at stoplights/city driving/ freeway but would get warm on inclines. Drained coolant, filled with Blue Devil radiator flush & distilled water. Have flushed about 5 times now but...

Bought a somewhat neglected ‘00 LX this summer. PO brought it up from the south, so undercarriage is fairly clean with minimal surface rust. Supposedly T belt was done but I went ahead and replaced it myself along with new radiator. When draining the block, the driver side drain was clogged. I...

Hello all, I've done a forum search on this topic, naturally there is. ton of chatter on this, however in my search I can't seem to find an actual step by step guide on how to do this myself on my 2008 LX that is detailed enough to cover the process fully from start to finish... If there is one...

Hi Guys, My car Landcruiser 80 1997. I have already posted a question on this issue and got answers. MANY THANKS TO ALL I did not asked an adittional important question. If after changing the coolant fronm green to red i did not flush or the flush was not good and I drove around 400-500km could...

Do not defer your 2F coolant flushing.… The FSM says to “change coolant if excessively dirty”. Well, my coolant was a 50/50 mix of Toyota coolant and did not appear dirty but wanted to flush and fill anyway. Glad I did. First, my radiator is an aftermarket 4 row type made by CSF. The drain...

Anyone have info on what Mr. T recommends for transmission flush? I don't see that info in my owner's manual. FWIW the maintenance info link in the FAQs is broken, and I only have the 2004 FSM that commonly available around here somewhere. It looks like the transmission referenced in it are the...

Hello, I have a 2000 TLC with about 90k miles on it. As far as I am aware the fluid has never been replaced. Anyway, I know there are threads on this already but most of them are pretty dated and was curious if anyone has had experience with this more recently. I was driving up a road out of an...

After Days in the Forum reading and looking videos of a Power Steering Flush, I came across this question, ATF or ATF Full Synth? After a flush will the mix of mineral fluid vs synthetic will cause Gunk? Or Synthetic will eat the seals... As my PS Pump is leaking and Using Standard PS Fluid...

I finally pulled together the video I took while completing a complete transmission fluid flush. Most of you know the dealer's service typically consists of draining and refilling the pan only. This only introduces 3-4 clean quarts of fluid in the system. I went through 14 quarts of fluid...

After reading the many threads on this site about how to flush your radiator, heater cores and block I thought I'd make a quick video to help others get started on flushing theirs.. This is how I decided to do it.. Not saying it is the best way but it worked for me and hopefully others..

What are some good methods of flushing out the fuel tank without removing it from the vehicle? I removed the tank from my parts Pig and it was anything but easy. In theory it is a simple job but it's not. So, I really don't want to have to pull the tank out of my current pig to "do it...

Did a Rodney flush this weekend. Im curious if the amount of fine smutz collected on the pan magnets is normal. It's been a about 30k since the last trans service. 247k miles on the vehicle. What do you think?

Hi all before everybody jump to my neck, I did search the forum and read almost every post I found. having said that, I still have more questions, that were not clear enough for me. I have a LX with 188K miles on it. I need to change both radiator hoses and I thought it could be a good time to...

I have reviewed the threads regarding coolant flushes, but I think I am overthinking what I need to do. I drained and flushed today until the water was almost clear. I have been draining from the petcock, not the block. So now I need to put concentrate coolant in. So after I drain 1.5-2...

OK so I have spent most of the afternoon going over all the ways to flush the coolant system on my 80.. After getting the cruiser up and running my son and I took it out on its first Highway drive in a few years. We inherited this cruiser from a friend that had a mechanic try unsuccessfully to...

Hey I was wondering if anyone knows any threads regarding flushing power steering fluid or if anyone can give me an overview of the process. Thanks

Has anyone used a radiator flush solution? I think my radiator has some sludge build up as I keep getting some very small amounts of gray residue up by my rad cap and in my reservoir. Anyway, I added this to my radiator that is partially drained since I am in the middle of my My overdue PM...
