Default My heater hose has junk in it.

I was changing my upper heater hose the one that connects to the head. When i took the hose off it had a ton of junk in it. It looked like puddling. I never run my my heater before. Is there a way i can clean out all that junk from the the heater system. Can i just connect a hose to it and flush it out. I don't want all that crap going through my head if i turn the heater on.

THat means coolant has mixed with oil... Sign of a headgasket leak. Check you coolant.
