Hey everyone. While I had everything off the front of the motor for the timing belt job, I flushed the heck out of all the ports and hoses. Now that everything is reassembled, is it still necessary to pull the plug under the motor for a complete flush?

Not necessary. You have already flushed out 95 percent of the old coolant... There is no reason to get the last 5 percent (BTW, there is still old coolant in the heater core... Are you OCD enough to try to get to that, too?)

Possibly. I decided to just run one of the 1.5 liter, and the rest distilled water. I'll flush it in a few days, and fill it 50/50 proper.
