    Default dust

    is there some sort of a trick to getting dust out of my oil and water jackets in my block( the head has been off and i had to lightly sand the old HG material off the block)

    key board duster and pipe cleaners as a start then just fill the motor up w/ oil and coolant then let it run for a little while and flush the coolant and do an oil change?

    the trick is to stuff some shop towel in the oil drain..... but the water jacket..... not really a issue other than maybe clogging up your heater core

    Or thermostat, or lines, or throttle body, or water jackets or heater core
