    MGF 1.8 VVC 2004 - Cooling sytem blocked # Archived Message

    Posted by Kelly Clarke on September 29, 2009, 12:25 pm

    We have this vehicle in for overheating due to the fact that the last garage mixed OAT and glycol antifreeze it has jellyfied in the complete system. I spoke to Forte who recommended 2x cooling system flush and drain down, it works well while hot but when cool enough to drain it has started to solidify again. we can blow out and flush a lot of the pipes off the car, new rad as it will not clear but how do we clear the rest???
    At the moment it looks as if the head gasket is ok but we all know what these do, so want to clear as much as possible before releasing it back to customer.

    Any ideas would be appreciated.
