Hi, Bill, (& List).

Again, quoting from the Good Book, chapter 3, verses 39 -40:

"SERVICING THE RADIATOR AND COOLING SYSTEM:

CLEANING:

  Only clean, soft water filled to 1/1/4 inch (approximately) below the
bottom of the filler neck , should be used in the radiator and the
cooling system of the engine. Hard water will form a scale, not only in
the radiator core, but in the engine block, as well. This scale or lime
deposit causes hot spots within the engine and will plug the small
passages of the radiator core. Dirty water will alsoclose the tubes in
the core and restrict coolant flow, and in extreme cases, will ncollect
in the engine and cause overheating and eventual engine failure".

COOLING SYSTEM PROTECTORS:

CAUTION: Cars equipped with air conditioning must use a glycol-base
permanent type anti-freeze in the cooling system throughout the entire
year. MAKE CERTAIN THAT COOLING SYSTEM IS SAFEGUARDED FOR A MINIMUM
PROTECTION OF +20 DEGREES IN SUMMER. This precaution is necessary
inasmuch as the air conditioner  evaporator lies in close proximity to
the heater core, which may cause coolant in heater core to freeze
(!!!!!!!!!!!), if system is not protected.


Any Questions?
