Oh, man.  I REALLY don't want to have to strip the engine.  I can't afford a
rebuild!

  Tony:

  IMHO....

  <<I will remove the lower radiator hose and let it run out and then rinse
it
  with a hose from the top and see what happens.  I will then run the engine
  some and then let hot (not scalding) water pour out the block drain, and
then
  do it again.>>

  That is NOT gonna do it.

  From you first post (which all have seemed to have missed):

  The engine is all original and has 30K miles.

  Sorry.
