Waterless coolant, anyone done this conversion?
Hi there, I've seen a couple comments on waterless coolant, some swearing by it, where I'd noticed some corrosion of aluminum bits I thought it would be a good idea. Of course like many of these things you research them fully, BUT you don't get the real picture till you buy it and read the instructions, warnings, and troubleshooting.
Number 1: It says, it really doesn't like bypass thermostat setups, isn't that what's in our cars? It says to use a full-flow thermostat ideally one made by them.
Number 2: It says to block off the weep hold in the water pump (or use a water pump by them).
Number 3: It talks about blocking the overflow tube outlet, apparently if there is an issue with vacuum being created and losing coolant.
Does, anyone with experience with this stuff, know the scoop.
