I am surprised how little antifreeze some of you use. I put 18 l (5 US gal -
two large jugs) through my engine. At about $10 at Home Depot, this is a very
cheap insurance. Antifreeze mixes up with water in the heat exchanger and the
muffler, so you want to have quite a bit to flush this out. Diluted AF very
quickly loses its anti freezing properties.
Maybe if you live further South, you don’t need to worry. We regularly have
long stretches of –20C to –30C here. I don’t want to risk a $500 repair for $10
worth of antifreeze.
just my 2 cents
