Hi all...have drained coolant. Hubby has used hosepipe to flush as much as he can....can we use a pressure washer at the engine end of the long front to backs to make sure they are clear??

regards

I think flow rather than speed would be better, atomised droplets versus fully filled hose flowing through.

Hosepipe is fine much more gentle, your not eating off it

block one end with a hand or rag let it fill then release and repeat until it runs clean
