ip 0 Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 It's an easy job to flush the engine and refill with fresh coolant. Why not do that? At least you'll be sure. Link to post Share on other sites
xyber 1 Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 G12+ doesnt react with any other coolants, but, for the sake of another few mins to flush the system I wouldnt risk it Link to post Share on other sites
akz786 0 Posted July 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 thats a fair point, shall i just remove all coolant from lower rad hose..use a flush additive then run that flush that out then put in the G12 stuff? do i need to bleed the system or anything such?Thanks Link to post Share on other sites
ip 0 Posted July 22, 2008 Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 Get the engine good and warm (so the thermostat opens up and allows all coolant out) and then remove bottom hose (careful with hot coolant). It should come rushing out.I don't bother with an engine flush myself. I just fill with water, run untial warm and then re-empty before filling with fresh coolant solution.Worked on mine and its coolant was filthy when I bought it. Link to post Share on other sites
