I run WW and distilled water.

WW is a proven 10* drop in temps, I wish i could find the chart/tests, but thats good enough for me.

When you guys say how much, are we talking like as little as 8ozs or so of the Dex? I'm going to flush my Maggie cooling system and was thinking about going this route, but just curious how much of the Dex I should use.

Thanks!

This is what I did. Just drain the radiator completely. Tightened the valve back, then added the bottle of WW and filled the rest of the way with distilled water. I didn't get all technical with quanities!
