Typically, in automotive radiatiors, you get a backflow kit, and force water and cleaning solution opposite the normal flow. This breaks up rust and gunk in there.. How this translates to a PC radiator, I do not know.
<< just curious...since i am going into h20 cooling
thx >>
Most autoparts shop carries radiator flusher and cleaner. You splice your heater hose under the hood and install this T adapter. . Drain out your coolant. Turn the heater to high(you have to turn on the ignition to run position on cars with digital thermostat) then connect a garden hose to T adapter and flush it out.
Pour a bottle of radiator cleaner and drive it around like that for a day provided that you don't expose your car to freezing tempreature. The next day you flush out the radiator again, then fill with exactly 50% the system capacity of straight coolant.
