Well i found a bottle of coolant system cleaning agent.

I laid the rad on its back and filled it half full with a mix of the agent and hot water and shook it around till it started foaming a bit and then added hot water till the rad was full.

I let it soak for a couple hours before draining it and then rinsed it out til all i got was clean water.

I found a leak in the process.

I'm glad i found that leak this way and not after the rad was bolted in for a cleaning process with the engine running and then having to take it back out again to solder it up.
