Slick 60's

i recently got a 2010 f150 4.6 v8...

anyway i checked the radiator fluid and there is alot of sludge buildup.. so much that i can stick my finger in the radiator neck and pull alot of sludge out. whats the best way to clean the system out? any additives i can add to dissolve the sludge or what?

i know its not 61-66 lol

thanks

I am not the subject expert on this, but I do know that a lot of people use this kit. Ive never done it myself. Generally I stay away from additives for the exception of the Lucas Oil treatment. Here is the kit

Good luck

What is the sludge? Oil, dirt, stop leak? Figuring out what it is will help determine how it got in there and what else might need to be fixed...

i think somebody has mixed gold and green antifreeze together..

They don't play well together.

Joe, I flushed my Edsel with vinegar, look it up on how to do it, worked for me . Tom

ok got er fixed, took it to the dealer and they had a machine that sucks it out, looked like a 5 gallan bucket of mud.. dont ever mix antifreezes!!!
