I would just pull the overflow tank out, because this will allow you to flush it out a lot better then if it were still in the car.

To pull it out you will have to pull your battery out. Then there is a single 13 or 15mm bolt holding the tank in. Pull the tank out and unhook the hose that goes back to the radiator. This is very easy to do.
