Coolant/antifreeze question

Postby Westie » Tue Feb 24, 2015 8:47 pm

Hi
I want to flush out the old coolant in my roadster and replace with fresh.
Could someone recommend a make of coolant/antifreeze to use?
I've heard that coolant and antifreeze are different and that I should be using a silicate free product?
If someone could point me in the right direction I'd be grateful.
Thanks

In use texaco or Unipart Antifreeze coolant, system holds 4.5 Ltrs so 2 1/4 ltrs of antifreeze coolant concentrated needs to be used for a 50/50 mix.
