RADIATOR CLEANING PUMP
CHEMICAL FORCED THROUGH BOILING HOT
Cleaning car cooling systems by means of a pump is not new, but the recently introduced chemical cleaner used by this particular pump is really the new feature. It is a powerful non-foaming detergent which is compatible with bisulfide, oxalic acid, and the like. After the cooling system has been drained and closed, a fixture is snapped on the radiator cap and a motor-driven pump forces the cleaning fluid at high speed and boiling hot through the whole system.
After about 30 minutes the turn of a valve changes the intake to water and the same pump circulates pure water until the effluent is free from acid and the inside of the system is clean. Finally the water is replaced by fresh water or antifreeze containing the best of ail anticorrosive agents.
