    Radiator Fluid... What kind is best? (anti-freeze)

    Green coolant cools fine, it just corrodes metal (aluminum mostly)...when I did my head gasket, the water jackets on the head gasket sealing surface had been eaten away to within a couple mm's of the combustion chamber...I had to have them re-welded.

    Johnathan1's Supra Thread.

    I don't particulary like it...I guess the grill in front is pretty inventive and functional, but Boost Lee did the photoshopping as a joke...I thought it was funny.
