Mawrick 0 Posted May 12, 2015 Just recently pulled the transmission to replace the crank sealant, also drained some of the water due to having of the valvecover, and top side panel, but I'v noticed some small occurance of corrosion in the tapped of water after it settles...., and after talking to an older mechanic he had some of the same trouble on his triumph when it sits for some time (his triumph is a summer car - and so is my Corrado so it sits during winter). I'm using the red G13 from VW - which works fine, it's good on cooling etc, but I was wondering if anyone got any experience with the stuff that's not ment to be used with water - is it better?. Also I use pure distilled water so that shouldn't affect it either...... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Bowen 1 Posted May 12, 2015 Have been considering that Evans waterless coolant but still not 100% sure about it. Other than that i was going to use the vw stuff. Got a new block so like the sound of the no corrosion properties of the Evans. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted May 13, 2015 Stick with VW stuff. Water has served us well for decades. That Evans stuff is better suited to race engines and if you spring a leak, it'll cost you more as it's not cheap! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted May 13, 2015 I always use the VW stuff. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
