Re: filling the radiator (vynster)
Never just use water or just coolant. You need a 50% water and 50% coolant. do not use tap water as it can leave mineral deposits in the cooling system. You need to use distilled water which you can purchase at any grocery store. I recommend that you just go to a car parts store and get a pre-mixed coolant such as Quickfill.
