1. Never mix different brands of coolant or inhibitors. A
mixture of incompatible coolants can induce radiator fouling and
can reduce the corrosion of the coolant. Always flush out the old
coolant.
2. Never use coolants that foam as this will lead to increased
cavitation erosion of the water pump. Shake the bottle and let it
stand for 5 seconds, if the foam has broken and the fluid returns
to normal then it probably wont foam in the cooling system. If the
coolant has not broken after 5 seconds then it might pay to find
a better product.
3. Never undertreat a coolant system as the incorrect ratio
of coolant can actually increase the corrosion rate to above that
of plain water.
4. Only use the best quality water. De-mineralised is the
best, never use bore or spring water.
5. Always check for stray electrical current in the cooling
system (all reputable radiator repair shops have this capability).
Experience tells us that many vehicles we have examined for electrolysis
and chemical corrosion damage are those that have had recent paint/panel
repairs.
