what about pressure testing? is the residue left over from the gasket failure? remove the thermostat and flush the system a few times, (use a jet wash if available and back flush it) what about pressure testing? is the residue left over from the gasket failure? remove the thermostat and flush the system a few times, (use a jet wash if available and back flush it)
