Seeing a lot of guys skip the oil cooler flush on 6.0 Powerstrokes
I keep pulling engines where the EGR cooler is already shot again after a replacement... The root cause is almost always a clogged oil cooler they didn't clean. The back pressure cooks the new cooler in weeks. Watched a shop in Dallas do three in a row before they figured it out. How do you guys make sure the whole system is clear before buttoning it up?

Read somewhere you gotta pressure test the coolant flow, @white.harper, not just look at it.

You mentioned the back pressure cooks the new cooler. What's your go-to method to actually test the coolant flow after the flush? Just a visual check, or do you run something specific?
