Hi sirs, I'm a newbie when it comes to cars, I just learned to drive 1 month ago. Ask ko lang, pag long time na water ang ginagamit as radiator fluid, kailangan ko pa ba mag flush before using a real coolant?

of course, maraming rust na sigurado yan.

One time nag top ako ng orange coolant sa green coolant, ayun nagkaroon ng gelling.

As a precaution I do not mix two different brands of coolant.

tanong lang mga sir... my vehicle is running without coolant eversince.
do you recommend that i put one na or stick to current na distilled lang nakalagay.

just worried kasi baka magloko if ever maglagay ako and also thinking (pwedeng mali pi ako) na since matagal na sya medyo mas mainit na ang engine nya at kailangan na lagyan ng coolant.

IMO, that'll be fine, as long as you'll still use distilled water, and not tap/mineral water. but if you want to spend for about Php 800 (coolant + distilled water + radiator flushing + labor), then go for it.

That is to prevent sediment deposits which will cause coolant flow restriction and poor heat exchange in the cooling system.
