March 9th, 2020 12:45 AM #14254they're color-coded, po.
innova uses the pink coolant.
pre-mixed or concentrate.
if you want to be sure, buy from the casa.
it may be more expensive, but hey! how often do we have to replace our coolants...
in the olden days, distilled water was fine, because engine blocks then, were iron or steel.
today, most engine blocks are aluminum alloy. they may need the anti-oxidation properties of modern coolants.

Using just distilled water in your cooling system was never ok, iron block or otherwise. But water is water... you could put in brown water in a pinch and it will definitely work to cool the engine.
However, the lack of the necessary additives (or the presence of unnecessary chemicals and substances) will cause it to eat into vulnerable parts. What you'll end up having in your cooling system is an aquarium of electroplating materials.... or simply, corrosion. Ever seen the water pump impeller go 'bald'?
Coolant that is designed for your vehicle helps to inhibit those reactions from happening. And quite equally, using the wrong coolant may even be more harmful than good.
The coolant does three major things:
1. Cool the engine
2. Inhibit chemical reactions
3. Lubricate moving parts (ie. pump, thermostat, valves, etc.)
By using just distilled water, you've just effectively ignored #2 and #3.

& raises the boiling point around the engine's operating temps.
Those of you who are planning to rebuild your engines(where you can drain em totally dry of old coolant or water) can go the ultimate option....Evans Waterless Lifetime Coolant.

March 9th, 2020 10:26 PM #14259nung kinonvert yung radiator, nandiyan pa rin yung coolant reservoir mo?
“Normal” water, tap water typically has dissolved solids, minerals, which can concentrate or leave deposits…everywhere, and those deposits are next to impossible to remove.
Distilled water is the only water that should be added, and only if the engineers recommend it in the Owner's Manual. Distilled water can oxidize steel and cast iron, but does not contain the harmful minerals like tap water.
A 50/50 mix is a common recommendation that combines the heat transfer of water with the protections of coolant. Consult your Owner's Manual.
