Subject: re: coolant (again)
I did some surfing for information on the whole Dex Cool topic. I found
that among the other things that are being said about Dex Cool is that it is
very poisonous. Apparently, chemicals in this coolant can be absorbed
through the skin and are carcinogenic. In addition to this it's flammable.
Once again apparently it will flash up at 126 degrees celcius. The gas
produced by this is invisible and odour free but is also cancer-causing.
From what I was able to find, Dex Cool is manufactured by AC Delco,
Texaco, and it would appear that Prestone is making it also (under another
name).
Not to beat the subject to death, but.......the use of distilled water
(in conjunction with green coolant) in a system that is flushed regularly,
should give excellent results (remember that Yamaha put the green stuff in
from the factory).
Don Seel.
