Did I flush/fill my radiator properly? I drained it, ran a couple gallons of distilled with cleaner for a couple minutes, drained it and poured a couple of gallons with the plug open, closed it put in 1g of pure antifreeze and 3/4g distilled water. I pulled off the upper radiator hose and poured water in that until it came out of the thermostat mount. Now I'm letting it sit, not sure what else I should do, I know that there is air in the upper radiator hose but not a lot of it. I don't have a coolant crossover so I'm hoping that pulling the hose did the same thing. *edit: It's sitting on jack stands nose down in the driveway
edit again: While running the engine with the cleaner I made sure it was producing heat and when I shut it off to drain the flush the water was warm. It never left the jack stands during this process.
