Just repeat the process by draining enough coolant to add another 12 ounce bottle. The active wetting agent and the anti-corrosion agent have a life of about 30,000 miles. I run Purple Ice in a 70/30 water to coolant mix and I just add it to the reservoir.ģ. If your water is only 40%, you need to drain some coolant and replace with distilled water or tap water if your tap water is soft, then add the Purple Ice.Ģ. For the surfactant (Water Wetter or Purple Ice), your water to air ration must be at least 50% water. Here is what I concluded based on other threads here, the manufacturer's recommendations, and my admittedly recent use of Purple Ice:ġ. One last question - by draining the reservoir, topping up with distilled and royal purple ice and driving around a few days will my coolant system mix completely so I can retest? I really don't want to flush it all if I don't need to until I get my new heat exchanger. 12 quarts/liter capacity) for the right ratio? This should yield somewhat better cooling.įor those that have done this are you using a full bottle of royal purple ice on our coolant systems (approx. drive around a few days to give the fluids time to mix and retest hoping to get to 50/50 or 60/40 water to coolant ratio. So my plan is to drain the reservoir and top up with a full bottle of royal purple ice and distilled water. Royal Purple Ice bottle says to change every year/30k miles. As I read the instructions on the royal purple ice bottle it says 1 to 2 oz per quart of coolant/antifreeze mix. this tells me my mix should be over 50/50 water to coolant. Tested my antifreeze/coolant mix and it's registering off the meter at a freezing point over -45F/-43C and boiling point over 269F/131C.
