coolant

[laxaholic]

I need to buy some coolant for the land cruiser. 2001.
My old man was saying that it might need a specific kind? Any of you guys know if there is a specific kind thats better to get?

Thanks.

Toyota Long Life. Its red and also really spendy, I can usually talk the counter guys down to ~$21 per gallon.

does it have to be used?
where can you get it?

Yes, any Toyota dealer. It should be what's in your truck now and mixing coolants (red/green/orange) without a full flush is bad mojo.

damn, alright.
thats expensive, how much would I need?

a college budget doesnt help

Why do you need to buy it, is it leaking, low, flushing system?

just low.

Spend the cash, because if you think coolant will break your college budget wait till you get the repair bill for a new coolant system.

true.

Besides, what's $25 for coolant, couple racks of Busch Light for this weekend that a buddy can buy. I'm sure you have bought many times in the past, right?

just low.

Then you need to buy enough to fill it. May want to check into why it's low too.

Still think Natty Light is the way to go..
