Its cold out now, and we all need to remember that water will freeze! Please be sure that your intercooler water is a 50/50 mix of anti freeze and distilled water.

Hey you STILL haven't answered my email about the belt tensioner bracket! Okay back on topic...don't be a dope...put the ANTI-freeze back in your intercooler! PLease tell me you bring this up just as a reminder...somebody didn't call in with a cracked intercooler or HT Xr?

Water Wetter work? I have in a 50/50 water/antifreeze now but was gonna add the WW soon. Any issues with that? Will 50/50 WW and H20 be OK or should I leave some Anti Freeze in there as well?

It's been below zero degrees several times this past two weeks. You're helpful suggestion needs to be put on your list of things to suggest for October in 2006.

I'm confident that the 50/50 is SOP for the colder climate guys but it's very good advice non-the-less, and especially for the newbies. Us SoCal boys who garage thier trucks dont have much to worry about though
