blubeast Posted April 26, 2007 Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 Is the container behind the airbox an overflow for the coolant or the actual resavoir and is there a special coolant you have to buy or will water just work?? -Austin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BumpaD_Z28 Posted April 26, 2007 Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 (edited) the reservoir back there is just the overflow... the radiator hold lots more... And I run distilled water, Preston GREEN antifreeze, and water wetter... If you live where it doesn't ever freeze then JUST Water can work (although I suggest water wetter also) Edited April 26, 2007 by BumpaD_Z28 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you live where it doesn't ever freeze then JUST Water can work (although I suggest water wetter also) I wouldnt recommend running just water. You need to put some kind of coolant in there usually a 50/50 mix of coolant/distilled water. Adding coolant raises the temperatore at which the mixture will boil. Water on its own will boil sooner than a 50/50 mix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
