No pictures or drawings as we fabricated our own out of a collection of hose, fittings, spare empty thermostat housing, a 10 gallon collection tank, pump, and filter unit. Our is also capable of re-heating the water to speed up the clean out process, and some of the fittings required alloy welding capability. Not overly complicated, but it was time consuming to assemble and probably cost a couple hundred in parts.
The unit basically connects to the car at the short hose sections that are underneath the bottom tray of the car, and runs the heated water backwards through the system to the filter and tank where it is returned to the car. Using it with an alloy cooling system cleaner (we use Prestone) it can also be used to flush out a system after an intermix problem, but in that case we circulate for a bit, then dump to the drain and run clear water through until everything is out.
