your money, your choice.
I've successfully flushed some real nightmare cooling systems because the junk tractor wasn't worth spending money on.
But, it is not a 5 minute process.
Flush water first one way then the other, many times.
summertime, plain water and some vinegar or whatever, drive it around and then do it again.....and again.
block drains open, hoses removed, waterpumps off if applicable,
back and forth with the water under as much pressure/volume as possible.
(radiator much less of course)
even tapping on the block with a rubber hammer as the water is back flushing.
Takes forever, and pick a warm day, as you will get soaked.
But it will help.
ever see a fast moving stream? moving water will wear away solid rock if you give it enough time.
ps don't forget water pump passages and the inside of cast 'hoses'
sticking the high pressure end of your garden hose in a block drain hole will give you a bath but really belches out the muck. (have the hoses off when you do this, so it doesn't plug up other things.)
