Hi guys. So today at the shop I installed and wired in my 13-14 intercooler pump.
I managed to get it filled but noticed the fluid was heavily aerated with the pump on.. no bueno. Before I could shut the car off I realized I didnt have a clamp on the HE... and the line literally blew off. By the time I got the car shut off, all my intercooler fluid was on the shop floor... lol!
So, Im tempted to fill with straight water, but was wondering what mix you guys run. I was 50/50 on Ford Orange coolant and water, but I live in Phoenix. Not worried about freezing, but is straight water too low of a boiling point for an IC system?
