Acid Flush using oberforfer?

Hi Don,

Are you aware of any danger of damage to the impeller and/or oberdorfer pump assembly when using it to draw the acid/water mix into the engine block?

Over the years I have read many tutorials on how to flush the engine with the muriatic acid mix and many of them recommend bypassing the engine driven water pump and using an external (ie: drill driven pump) because of fear of damage to the pump and or impeller?

Has it been your experience that is is safe to use the engine pump itself to draw in the solution?

thanks!
