Doubtful whether they would accept any responsibility. Maybe in the US but
not here.(UK)
I'd just have to sue if it goes wrong.
Had another reply which agrees with my own plan.
i.e.
Flush engine
Fill with clean water and run engine to warm it up.
Drain water.
Put Holts into block and fill radiator with Hot water.
Run engine ... blah blah ...
Fingers crossed.
Cheers
Glenn
