What do you guys do, Straight Anti-freeze or Mixture??? If mixture what ratio water to anti-freeze do you run???
I use purified drinking(reversosmoses,spell?) water very clean stuff,nosboy said:Daman is RIGHT!!! 60 anti freeze and 40 Deionized water.. The deionized water has a LOT FEWER minerals. The minerals contribute to dissimiliar metal corrosion!!!! Distilled also works fine.. You can go to murrays and buy PEAK water.. it is made for batteries and anti freeze where regular tap or well water will destroy your cooling system!!! ESPECIALLY WELL WATER!!!!
thats true but...strait water is hard on your water pump and startsyahadriver23 said:For max cooling running just water is the best, but you can't do that in the winter or it will freeze. However in the summer, running straight water is alright, because you dont have to worry about it freezing up

to rust your system over time,and reduces boiling point

On a snowmobile I would run the reccomend 50/50 or 60/40 anti freeze/water ratio, with a bottle of this in it. This is some neat material to read and it definitely works, I have had it in my asphalt sleds and my grass, snow sleds.
check it out, read the tech information:
