Then, when all the water is clean.........just let it all drain out and close it all up.

Refill with a 50/50 mix of Zerex G-05 and distilled water. Don't forget to take off the upper hose and fill it as much as you possibly can.
Sounds cool. You say " shove the garden hose into the the end of the hose and flush..." Into which hose? The upper hose from the radiator???

If I flush the heater core do I need to plug the radiator back up so there are not 2 openings?????
