Coolant Question

[clx16]

Zerex Asian forumula

1996 Toyota Land Cruiser Repair Manual says:

Use a good brand of ethylene−glycol base coolant and mix it according to the manufacturer’s directions.
Using coolant which includes more than 50 % ethylene−glycol (but not more than 70 %) is recommended.

Zerex Asian according to my interpretation of the text written on it meets that description. All the vehicles under my responsibility use toyota red and most of them are running zerex asian formula. I believe NAPA even has something.but attaching pictures for people to read for themselves.

if your other vehicles use a green coolant that meets the requirements stated in the FSM then use that.

Some people worry about availability in the event of coolant loss... distilled water works great no matter the color you go with.

I took no offense. Seems like you had done your due diligence but I do think this topic is over analyzed without much ROI. Maybe I’m ignorant but I don’t think it’s that complicated. Use some variety of coolant, use distilled water and do your routine maintenance. Cruise on and enjoy the ride.

I am talking Bout the same guess stuff mentioned in post #1. I would bet the OP is referring to Prestone green, preferably concentrate. Which is less expensive than Ready to Pour.
