I have determined by holding the upper and lower hoses on my heater core that I have some blockage... It looks like we are going to have a couple of days of warmish weather and I would like to try and backflow while I have the chance. So My questions are as follows...
1. Is 3/8" a correct measurement for the id of the hoses (id like to rig up a couple of couplers to connect to the garden hose)?
2. Can I, and, or, should I introduce a solvent like white vinegar or CLR into the core to help loosed likely deposits?
3. Any other tricks?
thanks much
