Hi Greg,
Dishwasher cleaner "Finish" in liquid form is pretty good at cleaning out cooling systems.

You can trim a sheeps wool many times, but you can only fleece it once !

I've had good results from clothes washing powder, leaves a lovely spring fresh meadow fragrance too

can't remember if it was bio or non bio though

The Forte is very good for this. We used it many a time when the Rover/MG head gaskets failed to clean out the mayo. Did a great job.
