     Good morning Steve!
     I can't answer your question about this product in particular, but I
     can say that my Tefba in-line filter thing has been effective. It
     caught a bunch of crud right after installation but every time I
   clean
     it, it would catch less crud until it had really captured all the
   loose
     stuff in the system. I check it once a year and there are a few
     particles, but it helped filter out whatever was circulating. Is this
     the filter that you mention you are using? Is your crud reproducing
   at
     night (:-) ) or why do you think the filter isn't working? The
   easiest
     of course is just to be more patient and clean the filter a few more
     times until you've removed all the debris, but if you like
     experimenting then you could try the product you mention. Just
   sharing
     my experience..A

       A  A Greetings!
       A  A Ran across this product being used to clean out a cooling
       system
       A  A recently on TV.A  Not a big advertisement, only a "we're gonna
       try
       A  A it".......
       A  A This is by the same folks that make Evapo-Rust for dipping
       small bits
       A  A and rusty tools in......of course can be used for big stuff
       to......
       A  A But this showed up as being something that perhaps I could use
       in my
       A  A car with a slightly garped up 351C due to years of
       non-involvement
       A  A maintenance by owners of the car.....! Ugh!
       A  A I get a lot of small particles circulating in my system, which
       a very
       A  A crude filter screen in my heater line does catch......but it
       seems
       A  A never ending, needing to remove and unclog.....A  A I would
       like to treat
       A  A it once and for all......
       A  A I have used the Evapo-Rust product and hafta stand behind it
   as
       working
       A  A miracles on otherwise rusty bits......with no work except to
       clean off
       A  A a black residue after soaking for 24 hours or so.A  A Very
       clean part
       A  A when you get done!A  A  But you do need to coat it to prevent
       rust
       A  A now....!A  A OF course pitted metal will still be pitted
       A  A metal......nothing miraculous here....but you will have clean
       rust
       A  A pits!!!
       A  A Recommendation is to drain coolants, flush with water, fill
   and
       add 1QT
       A  A of this stuff and soak a day......but others are recommending
       that you
       A  A drive around with it for a week circulating the liquid vs just
       sitting
       A  A in one spot.A  A  Don't need to remove T-stat then either!A
       A Then drain
       A  A and flush again!A  A  A  What you drain will be ugly black
       mess.....rinse
       A  A repeat.....with another quart?A  A I figure clothes hanger in
       the block
       A  A drains to see how it worked.....if it didn't then reapply
       second
       A  A quart......rinse....repeat......coathanger......if that fails,
       then
       A  A it's likely an engine pull and boil......ugh!
       A  A Any comments on this system flush!
       A  A Thanks
       A  A Steve
       A  A I was thinking of leaving the heater system out of this
       A  A mess.......jumper heater out to heater in on the
       engine......with short
       A  A piece of hose.......circulate away!!!!
