Once you've flushed as instructed, turn off the engine and drain as much of the tap water as you can, and once it's all sealed up, refill with distilled water and antifreeze. I'd suggest you over do the antifreeze.. instead of 50/50 mix, add one gallon straight antifreeze first, then if more is needed, use 50/50 distilled water and antifreeze. Why? Cause you didn't get all the water out when you drained it.. there's still plenty in the block and heater core. Have fun!
