disconnect rad top and bottom hoses.
To flush rad... feed clean water in the top till clean comes out the bottom
To flush block... Remove temp sender, feed clean water into the header tank

you just have to fill it up then let the engine run with the coolant tank lid off untill all the air bubles have gone. Will take a while as the stat has to to open etc
