August 18th, 2007 12:01 AM #23Sirs,
Napansin ko na nababawasan yung tubig sa reservoir. Typically, kailangan ko shang dagdagan weekly. AFAIK di ba di dapat nababawasan yun? Ano po kaya problema? Could it be the radiator cap, kaya tuloy nag e-evaporate yung coolant sa radiator and na si-siphon yung laman ng reservoir?

The rad cap is a good place to start. They're inexpensive and easy to replace.

August 18th, 2007 09:08 AM #25I agree with changing the radiator cap. Also look for leaks or loose hoses.

August 22nd, 2007 05:42 PM #27I had the same stuff on my old corolla, mabilis pang matuyo ang stuff na yon diba? Medyo nakaka aliw and no matter how much I scrub it off laging nag kakaganon. Some people that did clean my radiator (as in opened it up and brushed it) said that yellow stuff are mineral deposits. If its kinda brown may halong oil na nga. Both variants are really hard to remove.
When do you need to change the contents? As often as you want, but definitely if it looks cloudy or milky. Get it checked ASAP. Bring it to the casa for a check-up, should cost about P700 (or ziebart, rapide, etc).
As far as coolants go, follow the recommended ratio on the bottle of the brand you like. No offense to anyone, but 1:1 is not always the case. There are concentrated versions, so just take the minute or less to READ the instructions about how to mix.
And yes, use only distilled water, I dont think I have seen any distilled mineral water though. Its usually one or the other... I think.
If you need to add water every week whether with coolant or just plain old water, then there is something wrong with your cooling system. In fact if your reservoir water regularly nears the low marker even on a monthly basis, it should be taken as a warning.
