1. Make sure you dispose of the old coolant properly. wipe up or hose down
any coolant spills, antifreeze is poisonous and tastes sweet, so small
animals like your dog or cat will drink it and die. Check local laws, it
may be illegal to dump old antifreeze in the sewer or storm drain.
2. flushes are caustic, wear gloves and eye protection. Wear old clothes,
you will probably wind up getting wet somewhere along the line.
3. It may take several batches of fresh water to get all of the flush out.
4. Pulling the t-stat before doing the flush can make the job easier,
replace it when you are done.
That is what comes off the top of my head, good luck and have fun.
