Hi Everyone.... Just preparing for Rotorstock, and checked the coolant. Everything is running fine, and I know its about time to change it, but does it look normal, or is mine a bad example?



I\'m running it on the strip tomorrow, and know things will get hot.... the last thing I need is my coolant not doing its job!!

The colour of the coolant looks ok, but from what i can see, the presence of rust on your filler neck and upper chamber is a sure sign of past neglection.There shouldn\'t be any rust at all. You should change the coolant every 2 years, very important on these cars as corrosion is THE main cause for water seal failure, meaning engine out and rebuild!
