Black Coolant?...

Postby Fuzzlet » Thu Dec 04, 2008 6:10 pm

Well whilst going through the reciepts for my SE, there was no record of the coolant being changed....ever....So I figured it was probably a good time to change it. Im not sure what was actually in my raditator before....it was black...with a hint of green :shock:
