Getting ready to get my new head in, and wondering when everything is back together if I should flush the cooling system with anything more than water. Most of the oil ended up in the expansion tank, which I OxyCleaned - looks like new! I'm going to be putting in all new hoses, but noticed that there's still some oil and milky gunk coming out of the radiator when I flush water through. I'm sure there's also some stuck in the heater core and parts of the block, which will join the rest of the system when I fire it up. Any suggestions? Thx!
