Radior Flush

Hi all,

I'm in need of a radiator flush and would like to do it myself. After I drain the radiator, do I just refill from the fluid chamber in front of the battery?

Thanks

There is another drain on the right side of the engine block. You should open it an flush out the water in the engine block as well as the radiator.

I don't know how others flush the coolant system but I remove the thermostat then button back up, Add the flush solution. After the engine runs a while open the block drain then the radiator drain until water turns clear. Be sure to use MB approved coolant, Do not use the green stuff,
