Re: coolant

Hi Richard,
Antifreeze has several functions apart from low temps and probably one of the most important is preventing corrosion. I tend towards 33/66 mix in all of our cars and I use the yellow mix Car Plan Blue Star (it's cheap) which advertises it contains the corrosion inhibitor. For what it's worth, the lowest temp we've seen this winter in the Thames Valley was -11c. (=12F)
