He explained to me that system holds much more liquid than 7L and they are pressurizing and cleaning everything out from a radiator with a cleaning additive VPS Radiator Protection kit. But would look for how to full drain the system rather than hope the 1 gal of concentrate sitting in the reservoir ends up sufficiently mixing with the 1 gal of distilled sitting in the engine in a reasonable time.So I talked to the shop which quoted me 4 gallons. I'll have to keep it in mind when I replace my pump to address the leaking o-rings. But they don't sell 1 gal concentrate anymore. Though then would only need 1 gal for of concentrate for the whole process. The vacuum establishment for filling will remove some coolant according to the manual, but no implication that it'll evacuate another 3+ qt. But it would make the workshop manual process a poor process if the majority of the coolant is not removed by gravity drain. That's curious, but I see where you're coming from. Noting the filling process for these engines is a vacuum loading process, not gravity fill. Run engine until warm with heater on high (ie, get the water going through the heat exchanger) If rusty or dirty, use a chemical cleaner following instructions for the cleanerįill system with distilled water (not 50/50) Which now that I look at this container, it says for the drain/fill process: Pour half of the distilled into a container, pour half of the concentrate into the distilled, pour the distilled in the 3rd container into the concentrate, now you have two 1 gallon containers of 50/50. But I bought the 1 gallon concentrate back in the day picked up 1 gallon distilled from the drug store. The 1 gallon 50/50 premix containers are the way to go. Who would pour in concentrate and distilled separately? I guess though I could see people doing that, now that the approach has been put in my head. You would only mix before and pour into the car the proper mix.
