Re: Aluminum Radiator & cooling system in general
Boy, I got to reading all the other comments re: Aluminum radiators, anti-freeze, etc.
It's kind of like modern motor oil for solid lifters & steel seats.. no matter what you do it's wrong !
All right, so where can I find old fashioned "Blu-Col" type anti-freeze, or its equivalent in the United States? The manager at my local parts store got the "deer in the headlights" look when I asked him, but then again he was born after I retired !!
The UK still sells it, but it's a "restricted article" (ORM D it think) so it comes by ship!
I'd kind of like to have some by the 2015 Spring Equinox.
I live close to Mexico but don't speak Spanish that well. My understanding is if a car is that old , they don't even bother with anti-freeze. (water only, altho they do shy away from sea water except in emergencies!)
