Mixed green and orange coolant. How to clean

Asked by GuruCGHSN Mar 16, 2019 at 04:54 PM about the 2006 Honda Pilot EX-L with DVD 4WD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I traded my vehicle with a dumbass who
mixed green and orange coolant I’ve owned
the car about a month when it suddenly
started to overheat. Took it to the mechanic
and we are both stumped on what solution
will fix this issue. We’ve tried to flush it a few
times and it’s so Jelloie it won’t clean out.
Please help I need my car back and I can’t
afford a new engine.

My mechanic mentioned that he had a machine that could flush it but he was afraid it might push it further into my engine so he’s holding off using it until he can loosen the mess a bit with some kind of chemical solution
