Default DeWitts New Coolant





DeWitts Pre-mixed Coolant is specifically formulated to be a premium, all-season coolant/antifreeze for high performance automotive engines. It contains a patented low silicate corrosion protection package that prevents rust and corrosion and is specifically engineered to protect materials used in modern performance engines. DeWitts High Performance Coolant offers a more advanced additive package than standard “green” coolants and maintains better thermal conductivity and heat transfer than propylene glycol (PG) based coolants. The advanced additive package contains special anti-foam agents to reduce water pump cavitation and increase cooling capacity. DeWitts High Performance Coolant meets GM 1899M, Ford ESE-M97B-44-A, and Chrysler MS7170 specifications and is compatible with all nationally distributed coolants and liquid coolant additives. System protection is maintained from -34°F to +265°F when used with a 15lb. radiator

Good to know this exists. I'm probably due for a change. Brings up a related question - are there any coolants or additives we shouldn't be using in your radiators? I imagine you can't be brand specific so what should we look to avoid in general? And for changing over to your coolant, any guidance on flushing out the old stuff?

Not really, just use common sense. The biggest problem by far is using tap water from a bad source. That's why I highly suggest purchasing a pre-mixed package because it takes all the guess work out of it.

Bump for Tom...

Vendors.. no matter how much they spend here can't bump their threads for two days after their last post unless there is a question so we depend on others to bump our threads.

So bump for Tom, take it to the top.

Tom,
I've used ZEREX in one of your radiators since 2010. How does your new product compare?

Thank You,
Dave
