All things considered, I'd worry more about the quality of gas going into the
tank (as evidenced by the recent gas thread) It probably does not make much
of a difference if you use tap water or distilled water. However, seeing that
distilled water is cheap enough ($.75/Gallon), any hint of benefit probably
makes its purchase worthwhile and you can always use any extra to top off your
lead acid battery.

Getting the 76B radiator boiled and re-cored - will fill with redline water
wetter, 60% distilled water and 40% antifreeze.

Subject: tap water ok for radiators?
I'm about to change the coolant in my GT,
and I'm wondering if it's really necessary to
use distilled water instead of tap water=2E Will
the minerals from tap water build up in the cooling passages?
