Antifreeze Brands Posted by Saabster [Email] ![]() ![]() |
Well I searched first, and didn't find much help so forgive me in advance for a possible redundant question.
I'm due for a flush, partly for hitting 100k and also because I think my repair guy filled with normal green antifreeze after breaking an upper rad hose. I wanted to do t-stat and fluid last fall, but didn't get to it. I under stand the non-phosphate recommendations and all, but my question is...
#1 Am I sure I have an all aluminum system, or are there OEM rads that were copper etc?
#2 Should I consider a pump replacement also? I'm currently not having any problems.
#3 Is the Haynes procedure for flushing sufficient in removing all of the current coolant so no mixing occurs? I notice Deam recommends a wet/dry vacuum etc. for purging.
#4 Where should I inspect for possible "deposits" due to incorrect coolant?
Thanks guys, and again I'm sorry for redundacy on my part.
