I, in no way, have a perfect maintenance record. I have been fairly good about keeping my cooling system flushed and maintained. And if it makes you feel better by my openly admitting that I have replaced my heater core, than so be it. I have. All the speculation and theory is mostly correct. But what will testing my coolant with a Fluke Multimeter do for me? What are the real world consequences? Will all the dissolved solids deteriorate the coolant and leave debris in the radiator faster than scheduled maintenance can correct it? I am not recommending against distilled water, but I question the benefits. Especially where there is adequate maintenance. I would avoid local tap water that has a lot of minerals, and I agree with the comment made about softened water. RACE ON!!! |
