    Stupid question: what should I top up the coolant with?

    lol cheers chris, + again, i realise boiling isnt the same as distilling but i dont keep destilled water at home so i boil it as my kettle has a substrate filter + exposing it to a surface hot enough to vapourise it (before it passes through the engines heat exchange) helps to catch what little...

    Stupid question: what should I top up the coolant with?

    iv seen some gopping rads in the workshop but thats 'cos lads fill from the hose + nobody cares when theyre not paying for the part! ignore the txt on the pics + look at this; even with a good quality antifreeze, if you own the veh for a few years + top up regularly it'll start to look like...

    Stupid question: what should I top up the coolant with?

    judging by the heating element in my kettle, over time, id disagree... +i live in a soft water area! as it is, a britta filter +boil works pretty well! however if ppl are concearned id suggest a google search of their water company -this will show if they live in a hard or soft water area...

    Stupid question: what should I top up the coolant with?

    is the leak because the hose is perishing/ worn or is the flange on the radiator corroded / damaged? there are a few good rad system sealants which you can put in at the reservoir + they'll flow round the system sealing all the nooks, some are general (in that they'r designed to seal cracks in...

    If the soldiers can put their life on the line for us, they deserve to know that when they step into and 'armoured' vehicle they are protected.

    CB unit cuts out at 30 yrds?? wat have i done wrong?
