Message: <blockquote data-quote="netmatrix" data-source="post: 41004" data-attributes="member: 217">For the most effective cooling and heat dissipation use DISTILLED water. RO water is also good. In my case i use filtered water straight from tap which is also good. So long the water is not yellowing from hidden rust particles and mud!When buying coolant, use Orange or Red colored coolant. I use TOYOTA long life COOLANT RM19 for 1 litre bottle. Prestone DEXcool is even better. But very hard to get.U should use approximate 50/50 water and coolant. In this case a normal radiator should be around 4 litres capacity. Mine is 4.5 liters. So i use 2 litres of coolant and 2.5 litres of water. Close enough. So use 2 litres of coolant and 2 litres of water. If u have no idea how many liters ur radiator is. But 2 litres of 1 litre coolant or 2 litre bottle then fill up empty bottle with water and u can know easily.DON'T USE GREEN CHEAP COOLANT! I will tell u last time i use this it turned my rust to white deposits and that nearly cause blockage in my block! Not to mention busted my radiator cap in the process!Do not flush your radiator if it is above 10 years old. U need to get a full external radiator flush from shops.Remember Coolant doens't prevent from overheating. It prevents water from boiling easily that cause air to form and reduce radiator efficiancy.Change the overflow tank water too!After filling, run the engine and remember to squeeze the top radiator hose and you can see some trapped air pockets coming out. Run until the radiator water is almost overflowing continiously, then cap it.Enjoy radiatore comfort. :lol:</blockquote>
