This is the correct tool...a portable refractometer is what should be used to determine the freeze point protection of a coolant/antifreeze.

Try this product; it's designed to clean out cooling systems:

That's my bad if I grabbed the wrong SDS. However, 2EH definitely is an issue in HD diesel engines using silicone hoses, seals and head gaskets. We see the negative effects of it all the time in conversion opportunities.

It was looking good until I read that it has 2-EH in the formulation...silicon components beware: https://static1.squarespace.com/static/566f015c5a5668e19853a2cc/t/582200e7f7e0abd125fb4176/1478623466488/PEL_SDS-Ethylene+Glycol+Fluid.pdf Also seems contradictory that it calls attention to CAT's...

Fleetguard partners with Polaris for our Monitor Fluid Sampling...I have not heard of any changes with Polaris.

CCI also is the factory filler for Komatsu, which is also a Japanese company, so that makes sense.

Fleetguard recommends distilled, deionized or reverse osmosis treated water for mixing with concentrate.

Is there a reason color matters to you other than aesthetics?

It's possible!

The more I learn about this stuff, the less concerned I am with oil/lube filtration...the choice of lubricant used is way more important than the filter from what I see. Fuel filtration on the other hand is a different discussion.

Best bet is to cross-reference the catalog on www.fleetguard.com to see if we do.

We make these right here in Tennessee...neat little filters that are packed with serious media technology.

I'll see what I can dig up. The Fleetguard filter is the OEM filter, for what that's worth. Would you like to see any SEM photos of the various media layers for each filter?

Distilled, de-ionized or reverse osmosis treated water is the only way to go with mixing your own coolant. Much better off just using pre-mix coolants unless you're buying bulk.

That's where this little guy comes in handy...much more reliable than the old, mechanical gauges.

On top of this, filter manufacturers typically buy and sell filters between each other too...so even if it has a WIX paint job, doesn't mean WIX makes it.

For what it's worth, Fleetguard partners with Polaris Labs for our Monitor sampling program: https://cms.fleetguard.com/en_NA/literature/monitortm-fluid-analysis-program-technical/lt36251

We need to find an excuse to get you down to Tennessee for a media center tour...you'd be a kid in a candy store.

Feel free to send me an email and I'll get us an answer: [email protected]

If you guys really want to see a filter autopsy, let's have him send it to our lab in Cookeville, Tennessee for analysis. SEM photos, oil analysis...the full work up.
