The car did fine yesterday. Operating temps stayed 85-90*, and when in rush hour traffic it came up to maybe the upper 90s. Seems like that's about spec for what these should be running.

A chemical flush is only necessary on abused systems or if you see a film of oil. When I flushed mine I disconnected the lower hose and a heater hose and flushed with plain water through a garden hose. There is a drain plug on the bottom of the engine.
