Keep in mind that car radiators are aluminum usually in aluminum block engines. They aren't intended for brass/copper radiators you typically buy for computers. (Unless you have EKs all aluminum lineup)}

I guess why? Do you have a lot of corrosion you are trying to get rid of?

Most people stick with a light vinegar solution or a small amount of dish soap (which is slightly acidic as well). Then a good flushing with water.

There are also purpose made cleaning kits sold by the various water cooling companies.

Cool dude, my radiator and blocks almost all copper and brass for fittings, I kept the aluminium out due to trouble it gives, but I will use 10% vinegar and 90% water for flushing. I am gonna start another thread on my flushing method u are welcome to critique there
