Yesterday I did an article about the checking the Engine Coolant Level. In the article I mentioned it should be flused every 60-90 thousand miles.
The question is how? The typically flush uses an actual cleaning flush solvent that is powered through with an air gun. Sometimes just pouring it through will get the job done. You want to be careful to not use too much pressure as you could damage the radiator.
As always, you want to consult a guide book for your car. Some places online have good deals on car repair manuals. You really should have one for your car anyway.
