Hi, guys. I was just finishing changing my wife’s oil (got new ramps yesterday!) on her 2005 Honda Accord 4c, and I noticed the puke tank was well below the Max line...it was right on the Min line. Now, in the manual it calls for Honda’s specific Antifreeze/coolant that is pre mixed with 50% water and 50% coolant. It said NOT to add just water or just coolant.

First, is there a replacement I can use? And what do you recommend? The manual says that if the Honda stuff isn’t available, that a “high-quality” coolant could be used in its place as long as it is non-silicate and recommended for aluminum cars. What would meet those specs?

Second, the manual also says that if you add something other than the Honda stuff, that I should have the cooling system flushed and refilled with the Honda stuff as soon as possible….#@$%!, I don’t have the money for all that s**t before it is even time to do it.

HELP!!!!!
 
Are you sure the "max" line is the level when it's cold? On my car, the "min" line is the cold level and "max" is where it gets up to when it's hot.
