Need to flush radiator; what to use?
I am currently running distilled water and water wetter.
Should I stick with this? I don't really track the car much.
Someone said water wetter wasn't good to use in Hondas. Quotted from an old archived post:
<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote »</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">water wetter contains silicates/ silicate free coolant is recommended for hondas.</TD></TR></TABLE>
Should I just get some Type 2 Honda coolant (type 2 is pre-mixed right?) and drain the radiator and block, and then fill with Type 2 and bleed?
Just looking for some opinions.
I am in AZ so it does get pretty hot.
