I have been having problems keeping my cooling system clean. The car had been sitting for over ten years, so I expected some stuff in there, but this seems like too much. I replaced the radiator and

Sounds like your block is full of scale. The Gano filter debris gives you a good clue, and prevented it from killing your radiator. Short of an engine disassembly, (and block scale boil out which is

Steve, the Mercedes group is always against distilled water, as it is seeking minerals, and the engine, and alum parts are the victim. They recommend just tap water unless you live in a place where t

Distilled water seeking minerals? It's been - oh never mind - since I took chemistry but this doesn't make sense to me, Larry. We just had this discussion last year on the E-type listserve and the Ph

Not to belabor the point. My old company NALCO Chemical which specializes in water treatment sells a wonderful line of cooling system cleaners, anti-fungicides, and anti-algaecides. They are used in

Chris, here are a couple of excerpts re distilled water. Although I did not say, this is part of the subject matter I mentioned. Since you have a source, lets here from you and what they say. Larry C

I bought one of those sacrificial magnesium plugs for the radiator from J. C. Whitney's. It came attached to a brass ring which is supposed to fit between the radiator and the cap gasket but of cours

First, an apology, Larry - by your response, I believe you thought that I was being sarcastic, whereas I *know* you know a lot about water chemistry you having been in the swimming pool business. But

Well, we discussed this a couple of years ago, too, and it isn't true either (according to the professional chemists). Probably the most common solvent, but it is not universal. If it was, we wouldn'

That is the point of my statement. No system is free of O2 and additional contaminants carried with the now contaminant H2O present a pretty formidable set of corrosive agents. Given time, mans natur
