WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 GMC Safari and 2003 Chevrolet Astro. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: Failure to flush out the oil cooling system or the engine cooling system may result in premature failure of the replacement engine.

If the engine is damaged internally and a new engine is installed, make sure that all foreign material is completely flushed out of the cooling system.

The oil cooler system should be also be flushed out, if equipped.

Important: 

This procedure must be performed on a side lift hoist. The engine and front frame assembly will be removed out of the bottom of the vehicle. A single post hoist or a twin post hoist cannot be used to perform this procedure.
