![]() It is compatible with traditional green stuff, which the GM-dexcool definitely isn’t. I decided to go with the G-05 based fluid, which has been used in Daimler-Chrysler, some fords, and Volkswagen for years. Its all good just service your system every year and recycle the old. Good luck to all I use Green, G-05 or NPG-R for my projects customers. Hmm i dont think thats worth $275 ! $75 i would have paid for it.Ĭalled a friend who is a fliudyne dealer and got the rad for $300 less and custome neck and angling too.Īnd this was with buddys company mark up. Last time i delt with Ron Davis we had a simple request, make the upper nest a different size and slightly angle it so we could use a different hose. instead of just ordering the cooling system package (rad,trans cooler, inter cooler, shroud) we call Griffin, we ship them the old rad at our (customer cost) and they tell us 4 to 6 weeks then 6 to 8 weeks then we get the estimate from them and its within $3 of the complete unit from the supplier for Monaco(the warranty company wanted to just repalce the rad). I had to replace a radiator in a Monaco Motor coach and it had a Griffin rad in it and it was leaking. I never liked my treatment from them anyway, almost as bad as Griffin. no its not some idiot thing like the silicates coating anything but fresh metal surfaces exposed to new coolant change ever so slightly as they cure under heat and stress.Īlso if brass parts are bad in a cooling system then all the engines I build wit brass freeze plugs are junk huh. The reason is a new rad and if you have a new engine the surface of all the compnents will need some "break in". One thing that you can do to reduce coolant corrosion reduction if using regular green is to fill it with no more than 70 percent and after about 3 or 4 months of driving and refill with fresh mix of coolant. The reason you want distilled is that the additives are working on the contaminates in the tap water. Give them a call ,good people but the stuff isnt cheap.Īs for electrolysis it is negated if you use proper mix coolant and use distilled water. If you already have coolant in the system you will need some of thiere prep fluid to flush the block and system of water/coolant. The regular NPG+ needs some different parts to flow correctly. Oh hey Jonny rocket evans NPG- plus and such have been around for years ,nothing new and I have bragged about it for years and used it as its a drop in no mixing, has a boiling point of 375 degrees and a freeze point of somthing like 50 below or so.Įvans Cooling pn number 88 ask for NPG-R for street use. Most supply chains are selling the unversal coolant and I dont like it but a s a tech i have to install what i am given. Dexcool isnt bad in an all aluminum cooling system but if you have a newer gar with plastic fittings one of the organic acids in it will atack the black plastic and soften it as its a plasticizer.Īs for me if I want to run a long life coolant in a car I would use distilled water and G-05 thats the Ford extended life coolant. ![]()
