The Halfords Battery Top-Up Water is a 5 litre bottle of de-ionised water, suitable for use in lead-acid batteries. It can also be used in engine cooling systems to reduce scaling and corrosion as well as irons, lava lamps and air-conditioning units."
I've just bought 25L of De-Ionised for a Tenner and I really hate those little 5 Litre bottles as there is no 'pose' value in those whatsoever.
Parts stores sell a 50/50 mix, buy that and don't worry about it. You don't change antifreeze that much, even though they say every 3 yrs. Also, there is a waterless antifreeze, expensive, yes, but you never have to change it and it does not corrode the system.
I've been told to stay away from that Waterless Stuff and as for that Store bought ready mix, I'd rather mix my own, as that way I know the type of Antifreeze in there.
I wasn't suggesting you do that OB just that it makes no financial sense.
Asda is owned by Walmart you know! (and it seems they have horrendously expensive deionised water)
you can buy the equipment that produces the reverse osmosis water so you can have as much as your fleet can handle. Where do you put them all??
ive only got one moneypit and I have to hide it from my wife because whenever she sees it she reminds me that "it stinks like an old car". No s*** Sherlock. I think she does not get it
We have a product here in Texas called "Waterless Water." Chemically it is "o-h io" It is use specifically in air cooled engines, but there are trials in progress for liquid cooled engines. It is difficult to pour because it is highly transparent and will mix with the atmosphere and disappear. It should hit the market in a few years when it gets EPA approval.
