Took the wifes miata to get radiator flushed today,looking for any feedback before trying this method on the Q! With engine running,they hooked up a machine that sucked the old fluid out of the radiator cap opening,I watched the old fluid fill up a clear cylinder,then pumped in new fluid the same way! entire procedure took less than 5 minutes,including draining & refilling overflow bottle! Besides the fact they probonly did not use distilled water in the new mix,does anyone think this is hard on the water pump? does this method really work as well as the old fashioned long time consuming way we flush,fill,flush,fill,flush,fill in the driveway?Looking for any feedback before the Q gets flushed!
