    Hi a friend of mine got a car at auction
    One of the cylinders was gone so he got another engine for it.
    The problem now is
    When you turn on the heating you can smell oil in the car
    We reckon there is oil in the water system/radiator
    Is there anything we could flush the water system to get rid of the traces of oil

    Thanks
    Declan

    Could be antifreeze leaking from the heater core.
    Check for oil in the rad first.

    Any water in the oil?.

    To flush the cooling system, obtain any flushing fluid from your favorite auto place and follow the instruction on the bottle.
