coolant 850

Something else---What will eat your motor etc is if you leave the stuff in the car til it turns to an electrolite. After a couple of years start checking the voltage reading of the fluid. Check it when you install it and you can watch that number increase to no more than .4 volts. I change it if it goes above .3

Word is that the phosphate and silicate free fluids are turning to goo.
