How do you make radiator flush solution?
Honestly? No need to bother - just get some CLR and use that.
Can you run clr through your radiator and engine at the same time to clean out both of them them flush them out good with out damage to either one?
This is not a recommended use for CLR. People have done this and report no adverse result's, but I would not.
How long before you put water back in your raditore after using CLR?
First, CLR is a little TOO strong for me to ever put it into MY radiator. Second, if YOU have put CLR into your radiator, flush it out immediately. Drain everything from the radiator, pull the bottom hose on the engine, run A LOT OF water through it, run the engine for a while, then do it all a few more times. CLR is NOT designed for operation in engines and could cause serious problems with your water pump, freeze plugs, head gasket, radiator, heater core, heater valve... and the list goes on. For safety, once you've rinsed all that stuff out, add a water pump lube/rust inhibitor to the anti-freeze see if you can provide a little extra protection to your engine. And don't use products that werent designed for an engine.
If you have replaced the water pump thermostat and heater core and ran water through the radiator but it is still overheating Should you have the radiator pressure tested?
If you have replaced the water pump then flush the radiator with CLR also check to see if the fan is working properly.
What is the pH in CLR?
MSDS sheets reveal pH in the range of 2-3 for most CLR products; this is a STRONG acid to be used with caution

The smell of CLR is like nothing you can imagine. It is absolutely horrid and it lingers. I used it an hour ago and despite the open windows and fans I have going I can still smell it.

Can you use CLR in a dishwasher?
Yes, you can use CLR in a dishwasher to clean lime/calcium deposits that have built up. Source: CLR manufacturer website at related links.
Has anyone ever heard of using CLR as antifreeze?
I have used fairly strong concentrations of CLR to flush out a cooling system and clear deposits in a heater core. However I would be cautious not to leave it in the system too long because of its corrosivity and incompatibility with aluminum. I have never heard of anyone using CLR as antifreeze.
How many copies of the Common Language Runtime CLR can be executing on a machine?
As many as required by the programs that require a specific version, up the maximum of 4 different version. DotNet v1.0 programs require CLR v1.0. DotNet v1.1 requires CLR v1.1. DotNet 2.0, 3.0 and 3.5 require CLR v2.0 and DotNet v4.0 and 4.5 require CLR v4.0.
Will CLR clean copper?
I have an old brass or copper #50 sieve that has many of the square holes, .011", CLR was recommended by some, others say "don't do it". The sieve is used by geologists to "sort" material by size. Often, small rock pieces get stuck. Ant help is appreciated.
