Can't say about white vinegar as i have never tried it , what i do know that works is and Iron tite product . I had a choice of either running the War Dept.'s car off a cliff, cleaning it with five gallon of diesel and a match , digging a deep hole and making it disaper due to one half the heater core being plugged or pulling the dash and heater and putting a new heater core in it and that is something that i just can't do anymore . At one point in time before we got the car some one put the wrong antifreeze in it , this did the number on the cooling and heating . I let the goat store flush the system and there highly trained staff put the wrong stuff back in and had to try and clean it again . to replace the heater core we were talking 12-1400 bucks . That is a tough pill to swallow . I looked around for some OLD fashion rad cleaner and had no luck and tried several products that you get at the parts store and they all were a waist of money. I was talking with another friend and he told me about the Irontite product and hey whats another 30 bucks . I got a bottle and i really did set down and read the instructions on the bottle . Now not want to clean any thing but the heater core i blocked off the rest of the system and made up a elcheapo drill power pumpsystem and some clear plastic tubing and old metal bucket that i could put lots of heat in and get the water temp up to around 200 degrees and back flush . well guess what it worked and plum cleaned the heater gore out in 12 mins of run time ya can not believe the junk it cleaned out of the core , now there is heat on the passenger side . Total cost was around 60 bucks .
