mike,

Also, you can undo one of the heater hoses and blow / wash the core out,
both directions. 80 lb air hose is not a good idea. Coolant must be
silicate free. Honda premix would be best. hondasuv.com has all the
procedures. Fill the rad to the top, and reservoir to MAX, then run the
engine until the cooling fans run. (go for a zippy drive with the heater
on hot)


Top up the coolant reservoir again once the engine is cold, and air has
been pumped out of heater core / block.
