The darn Vinegar treatment sure works well to loosen all the junk in the system so that it can be caught by the filter (The small tubes in the radiator). Ask me how I know. Doing the vinegar treatment without installing an in-line coolant filter (like a gano) in the top hose is a total recipe for disaster, that will result in having to rod out or replace the radiator and no amount of backflushing will solve it typically.
