Any coolant brand recomendations?


Just wondering, I'm changing the waterpump and thermostat, so I'll need new coolant.

It's all Ethylene Glycol (At least the green stuff is). And it has worked since Union Carbide accidentally found out about it 60 years ago. It matters not what name is on it.

use what the manufacturer reccomends. most engines are designed to work with a specific brand and mix of coolant. if you use something else corrosion and un repairable internal damage can occur over time. remember, this stuff travels through jackets and passages all throughout your engines.
