Re: copper flecks in coolant.
The Previous owner used Bars Leak too cover a issue that you got the Luxury of Finding . you will have too flush the System , drain and flush, drain and flush, drain and flush... Most of the bars leak will come out. Refill the cooling system with straight water and drive for about 15-20 miles and vary your speed, but be sure to get the revs up a few times. Then drain and flush a few more times... There really is no need to waste money on the Prestone coolant flush stuff, I've never found it to do much of anything aside from flushing $5 from my wallet. It's up to you. I will add though, I've heard that the flush can cause potential problems later on, again I've never noticed it to do much of anything good or bad. But these are my personal results.
