this round going to use drinking water + coolant

Distiled water helps but not as much as you think

 

[minibeany]

this kind of rusting not advisable to use coolant. later become like my car. the water jacket terus burst, bypass pipe burst. coz coolant eats through the rust. hahaha

you suggest to get a new radiator? if the radiator causing the rust. how many mm? double layer aluminium?

For the moment, just use plain water. Flush it every few days or weekends, until you are satisfied it's clean

 

[minibeany]

somewhere is leaking too... ok lah... hv to see doctor

Hopefully that's just your valve cover gasket and not the head gasket

should not be the head... the top doesn't seem to have any oil stain. it is at the bottom.

Looking at the pic, the oil comes from above. Where else if not for the head and cover, can the oil come from? Cracked block?

Lol .. not me hinting at you to change. It's a secret desire lurking within you. gnawing at your inner peace.

usually after flushing and then add coolant, if there's still rust, it's from the water passage inside the block. u will need to remove water pump, thermostat and water plug at the block side and do chemical flushing to remove all the rust. then radiator send again for service and cleaning. should be able to clear the rust out that way.
