coolant ?s

[wicked6]

How many of you in Florida just use distilled water and no anti-freeze. Also, How many use water wetter?

Thanx

Most use just distilled with some sort of pump lube. I've heard that redline water wetter will gum up a radiator in no time. Stay away. Use RMI 25 instead.

I can verify that about "Water Wetter"...how about having to replace a radiator in a PS Diesel after using it!!

Using RMI-25 & Evans Coolant now---doing great!

I guess that I will just wait then until I can get some RMI-25.

where can I get Evans coolant!

BLACK6PACK-> do your guys in south florida all use distilled water and no anti-freeze?

If anyone is using the evans cooling what modifications were needed

Evans Coolant

Check out the link to the Evans website as given above for lots of info.

A simple radiator flush is all the prep we do...we use the Atlas Backflush machine.

who here had the EVANS NPG+ installed. Besides a good flush what else is needed? I looked at the site and they talked about removing the thermistat and changing a pulley!!!! Besides that all the old water had to be flushed out completely.

Evans Coolant

The Atlas Backflush machine reverse-flows & cleans your entire coolant system.

Then, to empty out the residual water from block,
we use a 6.5 hp electric blower (230 mph) attached to the upper rad hose, pushing everything out the lower water pump hose.

If you wish to lower your rad cap pressure, or put in a new thermostat, that's your option, & there's no better time.

BTW, distilled water by itself is extremely corrosive, and it'll kill your water pump in one trip around the block...

Is distilled water and rmi25 better than 50/50 alky/anti-freeze +rmi25???
