Formula One Radiator Service Will Change Your Opinion About "Clean" (Serck Motorsport Tour)

What happens here

The oil cooler is connected to a specialized internal flushing rig, designed in the UK. This rig uses new, filtered fluid for every cycle. The process involves flushing fluid through the cooler in one direction, then automatically back-flushing in the opposite direction after a set time. Air is bubbled through the fluid to agitate and dislodge embedded dirt and contaminants. The filtration system within the rig can filter down to 10 microns, effectively removing heavy contaminants like metal, dirt, and rubber. This cycle typically takes 1 to 1.5 hours.

Goal: Remove internal contaminants from oil coolers.

Tools and materials

  • 10 Micron Filters — To filter the flushing fluid, ensuring cleanliness
  • Flushing Fluid — To clean internal passages of the oil cooler
