You don't want to flush it every 50 K that will move the crap out of the corners
and back into the flow to be trapped in the cooler like a filter.
What you want to do is a rinse with distilled water then refill and 36 K I think
the number most are going with for the miles.

There are different versions of the fumoto valves, i got mine on the Pass side it takes removing the starter and putting it back on.

They fit and work fine.
