    How To Clean & Disinfect Your Cars A/C & Heating System

    Agree, I would also remove any caben filter as this is done, a wet filter restricts air and contamination can happen, just be mindful the ducked work near the floor/heater box may leak a very little amount of solvent. This is a great way to get rid of decontamination in your system :thumbsup:

    Griffin radiator and twin fans still running at 190-200?

    Remember some gages will lie to us, seen it happen a few times, use a laser temp gage to test the temps you all are getting before we jump to conclusions. Everyone have a great memorial weekend :thumbsup::usflag::usflag:

    Which way does the coolant flow?

    Not for sure but I am thinking from the water pump to the heater core then back in the intake, The water pump pushes hot water to the top of the radiator so I am just thinking the water would be hotter leaving the pump.... just thinking out loud here.. a good tech will jump in soon I am sure.
