As I'd like to change coolant for my GTD40 soon before Hot/Humid Summer in Tokyo, could you please let me know what would be the total capacity to fill coolant? Since the coolant in the market needs to mix w/ water by 50/50, I need the total capacity so that I could buy enough coolant in advance? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif
THANKS

Make sure you use distilled water. This will make a big difference.

Thanks

Yuji, That is a total system fill amount, 4 Gal's of 50/50 mix. I am assuming you have a GTD, unmodified, cooling system.

Yes, my GTD40 is I believe STD except replacement of radiator fan w/ higher efficiency as suggested before, which works fine.

Thank you!
