Question about radiator and coolant

Well I flushed my coolant out 2 days ago and can't refill to tomorrow (took turbo off for rebuild). So the car has been sitting for a few days with NO coolant at all in it. Was wondering if I should flush something through the radiator before putting new coolant in....

Wouldn't hurt - use a hose. Be sure to mix with distilled water though.

Re: Question about radiator and coolant (sackdz)

distilled water isn't really needed is it? flush it if you want.. but to tell the truth i don't think it will hurt anything if you don't...
