Can you use this to top off your coolant that is already in there? Also do you use it just like it is or do you have to mix it with distilled water?

Double check me but I'm 95% sure that you mix it 50/50 with distilled water. i would not top off with this if its not already in there. i would top off with distilled water or drain and fill with coolant distilled water mix.

You can use it to top off your coolant, but you must dilute it with equal parts distilled water before doing do. I usually prepare a batch in a separate container and then use that to slowly top off the coolant reservoir.

Yes use to top up or change. Its the same fluid in your car from the factory when new (called OEM). You need to mix half and half with distilled water first.

The directions on the back say to mix fifty fifty with distilled water, so I would definitely do that. Be sure to use distilled, as regular tap water has impurities that harm the engine over time.

I wouldn't use it as a preventative since it might put particulates in the coolant I would personally use it only if there is a leak in the system

I'm sorry I don't know what that is.I only bought this because it was recommened to use this coolant.

Hi Muzzammil, when it was time for me to change my coolant, I ordered (2) gallons of this, as per manual. But, when I drained my 2005 Accord from the bottom drain block...it only required (1) gallon to completely fill!

Yes you can. It is the suggested coolant for Subaru beginning went to this Super Long Life blue .

Yes, do not mix with any other coolant and do not add water. Change interval from factory is 11 years. Just top off when needed.

I have no idea. The waterpumps I have seen have sealed bearings that are protected from the water/antifreeze. Use at your own risk. Mixing this with antifreeze is a new experiment. Good luck ! ( do you have an extra engine, just in case?)

Use the red coolant 00272-1LLAC-01 and add distilled water or flush and replace with Zerex Asian (already pre-mixed).

No, it won't mix properly. Distilled water is available at drug stores in the US. You will still have to mix it before adding it. I use an empty bottle from rubbing alcohol, but any nonreactive vessel you can buy at the same store you get the water from should work. If the res. i going low often, check the cap for tightness and the plastic where it mounts to the body for small cracks.

if you are just topping off the coolant level, then yes. If you are trying to replace the fluid, no.

Add water. Instructions read a minimum 50/50 mix and maximum 70/30 coolant to water mix.

It is NOT premixed. You need to buy some distilled water. I read of a couple mix ratios on this but the consensus was 50/50. I mixed up a quart to top mine off. My mechanic does not stock it, and many auto stores did not. Mechanic said just bring in my jug when it's time to flush. I have no idea if my gallon concentrate is enough for that or not. We'll see when the time comes.

You should mix the full strength coolant with distilled water (50% water volume with 50% coolant volume).

The instruction booklet just calls it a "demineralization cartridge". I don't use it. Distilled water is MUCH better. Also, see answer #1, below.

Yes, it is recommended to use with water only actually. It is good for all engines and can be mixed with coolant or regular H2O.

Car antifreeze already has built in antimicrobial properties. If your using this in a PC. Assuming your not doing sub ambient cooling and not mixing aluminum and copper, straight distilled water is better. Glycol can leave deposits and gunk. Plus it will stain your lines. I have even heard of it breaking down acetl top blocks.

No, this fluid requires the mixing of distilled water prior to its introduction to your vehicle's system. Toyota makes a Super Long Life Coolant that requires no mixing prior to use.
