rust in my coolant
ive flushed my radiator countless times and yet i cant get rid of this rust (or what appears to be) i dont know if the previous owner of this truck filled it up with hose water at some point, but it wont go away.. any suggestions on how i should handle this? i should add that the interals dont appear to be rust from what i can see on the top but i cant see very far.

well ive considered doing like a prestone cooling system cleaner. ive heard that works pretty well. http://www.prestone.com/products/coo...Treatments.php
or going to a radiator shop have having a power flush done. which is i guess is basically the same thing except its done with a machine.. even if i did put a new rad that wouldnt remove the deposits from the block passages and lines and id end up with the same thing all over again eventually.
