flush it...i dont know exactly what to do, my shop doesnt do this, but i've heard of something like hooking a hose up to it and then running the engine and letting the whole thing clear out...

or you can get some **** from an autoparts store that you put in with coolant that helps with that crap.

changing coolant is routine maintenance, you said it's been in there for 2 summers, you might as well leave teh oil too
