I've always used Prestone Super Flush but there may be a better product out there. Make sure your clutch fan is doing it's job. Mine was bad and couldn't keep temps down on hot days.
1970 FE5 Duster 360/904/3.91's SOLD
1973 TB3 SpaceDuster 340/4spd/4.10's SOLD
Moparless for now but when the opportunity is right I'll have another one.

My coronet isn't really cooling like I think it should
Draining the coolant down a bit can you see corrosion around the core openings that's suggesting it might b partly plugged? More details; hot at stoplights/on highway/when did it start/any recent mods/changes/what fan/shroud setup. Rad flushes dont work super great as lime buildup is very tough, back flushing has been known to help and or along w removing a freeze plug/checking for extreme debris buildup & if so cleaning all of em
I just go my 70 Challenger back on the road, after flushing the radiator normally, it was still running a little hotter than normal. I had the radiator flow tested and back flushed. What a suprise the trash, rust, and dirt that came out during the back flush. Get it back flushed, I am a beleiver.
