richywrecka Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 Just having a nose through the manual and it says 50/50 mix of coolant and distilled water, question is why the distilled water?. Does it make a difference or is it for the protection of the water ways internally? Only looking at it now because its got cold...

martinh Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 Distilled water has got the calcium removed, so it stops the limescale/calcium deposits building up inside the rad and its associated pipes. This prevents the pipes becoming furred up/blocked and working less efficiently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinh Posted November 26, 2005 Share Posted November 26, 2005 Or you could just buy Silkolene Pro Cool, which comes pre mixed, so you can just pour it in! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
