Cleaning radiator

[Cuban85]

Hi guys

I need help, recently I've had oil leaks that I left for too long and this led to oil running into my radiator, which led to overheating and eventually blowing a head gasket.

I replaced the following:

Profile gasket
2 O - rings
Oil filter housing gasket
Oil cooler gasket
Vacuum pump seals
Cylinder head gasket
Bolts for Cylinder Head
Engineering sleeves were done

All this work done at SVG Autoworks in Southfield opposite Chilli Bar.

They were supposed to flush the radiator as well because of all the oil that got in. Anyways I notice the water light came on this morning so I went to the garage to throw in water but I see there is still water in the radiator.

What can I use to flush the radiator out to get rid of the oil?

I am taking the car back there tomorrow morning though.

Any advice would be appreciated.

When my Oil Filter gaskets Started Leaking i had a similar issue and found bits of oil in my water so i used LM Radiator Cleaner and LM Engine Flush Flush.

I bombed the Radiator Cleaner in and ran the car for 15 minutes then did a coolant flush.

Bombed the Engine flush plus in my oil, drove to CCD and changed oil.

Both oil and water are now sorted, with no contaminants of each
