He's just saying use what the manufacturer tells you to and he's right also he's right about the air and removing the thermostat. I've been a professional mechanic for 23 years, I use distilled water but I've used tap water in the past and it's never caused any damage so I'm not sure how true that is that you have to use distilled water.

Quick video is right. Thank you for hitting the points w/o taking 15 mins or more doing so. We’re smart so just these high points will do!

You need distilled water for sure some places like Arizona have very hard water and will 100% create calcium build up

[mendoblendo]

People use distilled water don't half ass it.
Other than that it's a good video

I use Prestone Green in my '68 C/10 and '71 GMC Jimmy. The orange stuff would corrode my Brass radiator and heater cores. For my '03 Tahoe the Dexcool Orange works. They don't mix.

I stopped using green years ago and moved to Orange Dexcool in my trucks, for my car I use purple coolant. I like the pre-mixed because it’s just easier after I flush. However, never ever mix coolants.

So flush with tap water, but mix antifreeze with de ionized/distilled water

Instead of removing the hoses and the thermostat can you just open the petcock on the radiator and turn heater on and flush it that way? Im assuming removing the hoses and thermostat is just quicker?

Well my 98 Mercury Grand Marquis takes green, at least that's what Ford says what would you suggest if not green?

[MuttTheBuckeyeSlayer]

Your talking too fast dude. Not everyone mechanical inclined and u speaking pig Latin Spanish and Japanese and Spanglish. Lol

[jhaimp.sullivan]

I thought there was a reason to NOT put water from the hose, because of the other things that ultimately get caught up in the coolant system -

[YoungNCrazy]

Please tell me where you bought the big catch pan? Thabk you

[warlockmagic]

My girlfriend just got mad when I said I was heading out to the garage to drain my petcock.. 😞

[nicoleholley]

What if you don't have a radiator?

How critical is it to use air after the water?
