What kind of Coolant in my bx22??

[Nilesw]

I checked the coolant in my bx22 today and it was low. I was wondering what kind everyone recommends. I live in central GA so it doesnt get too cold here plus the tractor is housed in my basement...

Thanks
Niles

was it low in the holding tank or the radiator, If the holding tank is low you only need to add water, It probobly evaporated.

If you add any water to your cooling system or battery make sure it is Distilled Water .
My dealer recommends using Fleetguard antifreeze for all <font color="orange"> Kubota </font> tractors.

Any Low/no silicate EG antifreeze conforming to GMXXX is fine.

Distilled water is ok at best since there are still silicates, phospates and many other things in distilled water. Never mind that all distilled water is not equal.

I have used Distilled water in the past but switching to RO/DI water. It is the best of the best of the best!!!! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I als use Fleetrite antifreeze but they are also many other good ones out there.
