Hassle naman kung kailangan pa pumunta sa dealer para lang mag top up, lalo kung out of way/emergency situations.
    personally, i won't mix and match them but it's up to you.

    if you're still interested, you can try SamJuansShop (*samjuansshop) • Instagram photos and videos. he sells and sends honda type 2 coolant among other things. sa kanya ako nakabili last time ng baldwin oil filters. he also has a shop at lazada. and sa kanya din ako kukuha ng type 2 coolants in the future

    I forgot to say na ipapa drain/flush ko muna yung existing coolant para hindi maghalo since different brand/color sila

    nagpa-flush din ako before ng type 2 coolant ng fd2 and mahal talaga.

    iyong nabilhan ko pa dati importer/reseller ng mga honda type 2 coolants na naka 4 liter jugs kaya medyo mura ng konti ang bili ko. pero almost 3k din ata iyong bili ko dati.

    all i can say is, worth it naman kasi hanggang ngayon walang naging problema rad niya.

    I would just use honda though. It will last 3yrs or so.


    honda type2 lasts 10yrs

    do coolants expire?

    i was about to top up my truck's rad reservoir when i noticed that the coolant stored in its original bottle isn't as "watery" as i remember it to be. parang medyo viscous na siya w/ crystal like "impurities".

    btw, i'm talking about the oem mitsubishi green coolant. siguro may mga 4 years na din siya naka tago sa cabinet.

    Diba Mitsubishi Coolant is premixed with a bit of water? If yes, baka nag evaporate yung part water component niya sa tagal?

    https://shopee.ph/MITSUBISHI-RADIATO...996.6908749003

    Yung coolant na ito ng mitsubishi nakasulat talaga na may part water.

    But meron din iba na may nakasulat na 30-50% concentration pero nakasulat lang is may Antirust and antifreeze

    Don't use it. Just get a new bottle.

    i would be wary of these if there are "solids" present.
    the solids might not dissolve, and cause blockade.

    Those particulates may be silicates.

    Silicates do have a life, and it's a short one - two years. If left longer, build up inside the radiator begins, and the silicates actually contribute to cooling system problems. Silicate drop out occurs after the coolant has been "spent", and the inhibitors drop out of solution. Silicates are blamed for deposit build up in radiators and heaters, causing engine overheating and poor heater performance. Once the silicates drop out of solution, dissimilar metal corrosion is no longer suppressed, and metal components begin to deteriorate.

    Silicates are deemed to be abrasive in a cooling system, and are blamed for premature water pump seal failure.

    If it says that it is silicate-free. There are still "regular" low-silicate coolants available.

    And I did say "Those particulates may be silicates."

    Otherwise, unless the coolant container was contaminated through other means, what else can it be?

    Don’t mix coolant of different colors. I personally use Zerex Asian Blue or Honda type 2 for my Element, and just regular green Prestone for my Sonata.

    ^ not really a knock on him pero nagtataka lang ako medyo ayaw nya ata gumamit ng oem fluids pati sa iba niyang vids.

    Pero informative nga mga diy projects niya sa mga sasakyan irregardless of different makes he has tackled.

    do what you gotta do so you can do what you wanna do

    I wouldn't switch on the AC to warm up the engine, the spinning radiator fan will remove the heat build up in the cooling system. this will lengthen the time to open "thermostat"

    coolant change every year is rather excessive.
