Question: radiator flush.

Question: radiator flush.
So my F2 has been running noticeably hotter. The fan works, the water pump is fine, my cap seals, and I recently flushed coolant. My only other guess is my jets are a tiny bit on the lean side.
I am wondering- Can I run some soapy water through my system to loosen some gunk? The guy at autozone said not to run that Purple Power stuff through, but recommended soapy water. Should I run some other sort of chemical through, or is soapy water alright? How effective will this be? How long should I run it through? Is it even safe, or am I (autozone) way off?
Thanks for the help.

I've heard of people running soapy water through there cars to help flush them, but I've never had the ***** to do it....lol.
I don't really see why not if you could be sure to get it all out and you knew for sure that it wouldn't hurt aluminum at all.
I just always used a bunch of water.

You'll be fine running water for that purpose. In the past in my vehicles I have used hose water. The safest bet if use some bottle purified water.
