That $200 coolant flush kit that did nothing but leak
Picked up one of those fancy coolant flush kits last month from a parts store in Spokane. Cost me $200 and I spent 4 hours under my F-750 trying to get it to seal right. Ended up dumping half the coolant on my garage floor and the stupid thing still leaked. Went back to the old garden hose trick and it worked perfect in 20 minutes. Anyone else waste money on a tool that just made things worse?

$200 for a coolant flush kit sounds like a lot of hassle over something that's basically just water and antifreeze swapping places. Four hours on a tool that could not even keep fluid where it belongs is rough, but at least you learned the garden hose trick still works. Honestly wonder how many people actually get those kits to seal on the first try.

Who even buys those kits anymore?

My buddy bought one and the seal failed, spraying coolant all over his garage floor.
