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?

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.
