USE GOLD COOLANT. I flush with water. I ued distilled water and then filled it with 50/50 mix if GOLD coolant and water. The filter will do its job very soon. Touch it after 5000 miles and if it is not at the coolant temperature, change the filter. You will want to cut it open to see the junk in your block. Use a wacksaw to cut it open.
