@#$! Jap Trucks. ;)

Had the Javelin Radiator cleaned a few years ago (185K miles) and it was
barely mucked up. Guess that's what happens when you change the coolant
every year.

Just last year I had my radiator cleaned by a professional
radiator service for the first time in 10 years. This was on
my 204K mile Mazda pickup. I had all kinds of mineral deposit
blockage in the core using standard tap water. If your planning
to keep the Dak as long as I've kept the Mazda I would suggest
using distilled water. Might be some extra protection for the
electric fan Dakotas as well.
