VC-9 ?

Have my 4 gallons of gold coolant & 15 gallons of distilled water and plan to do a flush this week. Truck is a '03 with 35k on it. Don't know if I should use the VC-9 cleaner with only 35 k on the truck. Also plan to put in a coolant filter when I do the flush. Thanks for any input.

If it were mine I would use the VC-9, especially if this is the first time or it sits and is not driven much. JMHO
Good luck with the project.
