Di Posted November 24, 2007 Posted November 24, 2007 Hello,Is Halfords advanced protection antifreeze suitable for aluminium engines Quote
Guest Posted November 24, 2007 Posted November 24, 2007 If they're 'owt like some of the big oil names, there may well be a website that would tell you the specs ...They might (long shot) have a tech phone line too ??The Halfords near me is cacka-poo ........ last time I went in, some plonker tried to 'sell' me a credit card ... the staff are like the Scarlet Pimpernell (never about) ... and they're loads dearer than some of the local tradey places - which I find you can use without any hassle .......

Di Posted November 24, 2007 Author Posted November 24, 2007 it doesn't specify about ali engines Quote
Guest Posted November 24, 2007 Posted November 24, 2007 it doesn't specify about ali engines Right .. next thing ...Have you got a Haynes manual for your bike ?? Quote
Guest Posted November 24, 2007 Posted November 24, 2007 No. A works one Does it say anything in there about A/Frz spec ??It is quite likely that it will be fine in an ally block - nearly allengines these days are ally ..... but there's no harm in your checking ......The other thing you could try would be something like the Comma website - or some other 'names' - Other thing ...Let's ask Stu-pot Stu .. get off your lardeee bwarteee and answer this thread Quote
Guest Posted November 24, 2007 Posted November 24, 2007 just finking outloud ..........I fink a iron block will split before an ally one ........ ally is softer - iron more 'brittle' .. so, if it would work in iron, will defo work in ally .........But don't take my word for it .. I'm just waffling really ... Quote
Di Posted November 24, 2007 Author Posted November 24, 2007 Ooops phone call from the sprog, have to distappear for a few mins to go pick her up from stables, back in a mo! Quote
