!!Caterpillar ELC coolant users!!

[jtisdale]

I have a case 50/50 premix sitting on the bench waiting to go in at the next oil change (@40,000k).

I wanted the Fleetguard, but they didnt carry it, so I got this instead.



1)How long have you been running it? (time/miles)



2)Have you had any problems with leaks or anything else?



3)Did you add anything to it when you put it in?



Thanks, Jim

1) I've been using it since the first flush, going on 2-1/2 years now, and 3 changes, 103,000 miles, and it's always still been perfectly red when removed, no crap in it.



2) nope



3) nope

I used Cat ELC to replace the factory coolant. Drained that a year later to make sure the factory stuff is all out. Everything looked brand new. Refilled with Cat ELC. Will never change again.



P. S. The new Cat ELC I bought said "... with embitterment. " I looked the word up in a dictionary and it said to "make bitter". So I guess that makes it Cat friendly.

I just changed to the CAT ELC a few week ago, no problems.

I have around 2,000 on mine, so I'm still new to it also, for the CTD that is. I have ran it for years in the tractor trailers Iv ran never had a problem.

Jim-I hate to say this,but I agree with Rob I have used Cat ELC in all of my diesel vehicles and been very happy with it. Now that my source quit Cat,I'll be trying Shell ELC.

Glad to hear that guys.



Rob, I am disappointed, I thought you would have clued me in sooner. We need to talk.



Sorry for the exclamation points, but I had to get your attention.

Jim, sorry, so here's another tip, I also use Canadian air in my tires, it's lighter than our air, better MPG now.





Glenn, ya 'ol rust spreader, it's good to see you wising up! LMAO
