Coolant Question

southark is on point. theres too many different formulations because of the different metals and materials all the OEM's use, their own formulations will 100% prevent problems such as rusting, clogging... etc etc

but im sure if mr.jar has had good experience with the coolant of his choice, it's safe to use as well.
