sms747 Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 The pink stuff is getting a bit low, can it be topped up with water or do you have to drain it like oil and fill with the pink coolant again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guzzi850m2 Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Topping up with water is fine but be aware of that the freezing point will go up, so your engine block can crack if it gets below -10 deg.C. The coolant liquid have anti corrosive properties so having it in the cooling water system is a good idea. Do you have a leak in the system?

transam Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 If it is a smallish amount no probs with water. I put in distilled water. Hasn't got nasty stuff in it. Coolant should be changed at the advised period. Hand book will tell you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevenl Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Hand book is in thai, i will top it up a bit then get some new stuff, no leaks only 9 months old Strange then that the level gets low if you have no leaks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
transam Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 OP. Remember the level rises in the fill bottle when hot and drops as everything cools down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
