I agree with Steven about the side-effects of flushing with Prestone. After
I did that, my year-old water pump failed a  couple of weeks later, and I
have a feeling the chemical flush caused it. Not to mention a couple of
other leaks, fixable with Bar's Leak. If I had it to do over, I wouldn't use
the Prestone, just water.
