sweetshee4312 Posted June 30, 2004 Report Posted June 30, 2004 hey im putting the engine back together, i was woundering what should i put in to cool it, just straight anti freeze, or w/e it is, or lliek 1/2 water 1/2 anti freeze? Quote
TREELIZARD Posted June 30, 2004 Report Posted June 30, 2004 don't use straight anti freeze. go to the store and buy a gallon of distilled water and mix it 50/50 with the anti freeze. do not use regular tap water because the minerals in it are no good for your cooling system. Quote
sweetshee4312 Posted June 30, 2004 Author Report Posted June 30, 2004 ok i will do that......how much do u fill up, just right to the top im guessing Quote
frocashmoney24 Posted June 30, 2004 Report Posted June 30, 2004 you can buy 50/50 mix already at the store, or you mix it yourself wiht disilled water, put it in the radiator to the top, then run the quad with the cap off, air bubbles will come to the top, then top it off and put the cap back on and ur good to go Quote
Screamin_Banshee Posted June 30, 2004 Report Posted June 30, 2004 Banshee's are known to over heat, some an addative might not be a bad idea since you are allready there. I used Wetter Water for a long time with no troubles, but have heard good things about Engine Ice. Wouldnt hurt to add a little. Just my opinion. Quote
DevilDriver Posted June 30, 2004 Report Posted June 30, 2004 i was just gonna mention the Wetter Water. it will help drop temps by almost 10 degrees in some applications ive heard. Quote
jadaven Posted June 30, 2004 Report Posted June 30, 2004 Ive got engine ice in mine. I had some overheating problems (which turned into a engine rebuild) and when i put it back together i put engine ice in and bettween that and a couple of those inline coolers off ebay and a prodesign water pump i dont over heat anymore. and just incase i got a temp gauge but the engine ice is allright.
