    The left side is regular/clean distilled water, the right side is from the last flush (flush #4) from my radiator. Should I of gone for 1 more flush as im trying to rid the system of the universal yellow that was in my system. The water does still appear slightly cloudy, but maybe im overthinking it.

    P.S.
    On all my (distilled) water flush’s I drove around for a whole day, roughly 30 miles give or take, with the heat at full blast.

    I’d say it looks pretty clear.

    I think you've done good. Send it. Could do a coolant drain and fill in 6 months or so and you'd be 100% positive.

    I see a tiny piece of head gasket in the right hand jug.

    Looks good to me. Another flush might make it a little bit clearer but what you’ve got is fine.

    Might be from one of those random bolts I found in my under carriage that another member on a different thread told me to throw into my oil crank case “it’ll find its way home eventually “….

    You’d have to roll the truck on it’s lid for that to work. You’re better off with a few loose screws like the rest of us.
