Ok to answer 2 items.YES the lime away is perfectly safe I can vouch 1st hand and ran it thru my brand NEW radiater in 2010 to clear the block out and NEW heater core.Next my truck never ran hot,about a 1/4 up from the lowest bar above cold but heat sucketh and with a 24yr old rad,htr core go figure.I went with a auto zone spectra(I think single row) better heat flow,plus truck warmed up quick as @#$! in cold am and never goes above the same as above on even days here when it was like 95 in nc.Since you have all new parts aside from the radiator and heater core I would at least swap to a new rad and flush the system.I drained refilled with distilled water and one bottle of lime away and ran for 15 min heat on fan hi,drain refill just water and leave rad cap of until it bubbles over,then cap.Then I refilled and flushed with clean water again 2nd time to ensure it was crystal clean and it was.Then final coolant,distilled water mix and done.USE distilled it is better than tap(city and even well water) and I have a wellwter.
