Cooling System

A recent question I received was what causes and how
to control electrolysis buildup in cooling systems.
There can be several causes but usually either the
cooling system hasn’t been flushed and renewed lately
or possibly an aftermarket electrical device has been
installed on the car and not grounded properly. Left
uncorrected this condition will cause leaks in your
cooling system due to an ion exchange between the
cooling core and the engine coolant. The easiest
corrective measure is to flush the cooling system on a
regular schedule and add fresh coolant.
