|
| Hey guys, following on from my previous post
http://www.alfa-pages.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=5285&highlight=flush I have decided to do the following before I change my thermostat. 1. Add some RMI-25 to my current old coolant and old thermostat. 2. Run for a week to restore metal surfaces to normal, protect the metals and suspend any contaminants. 3. Then drain and fill with distilled water/White Distilled vinegar at 50/50, Run engine until warm 4. Let cool 5. Drain 6. Run distilled water through to rinse out vinegar, twice! 7. Fill with coolant, premixed (EG) Ethylene-glycol 50/50 or concentrated (EG) Ethylene-glycol with 50/50 distilled water/Deionized water. Found a good article on the subject http://subiefreaks.com/rons-subaru-performance-information-corner/cooling/cooling-system-faq/ What (EG) Ethylene-glycol coolant would you recommend? Anyone know what equivalent RMI-25 is in the U.K? http://www.dieselsite.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=27 http://technilube.com/rmi25/index.php |
