Is it ok to use red coolant in my 1996 honda accord lx 4 cylinder, 2.2l?
Flushed out my coolant system and i don't know if i should use green or red coolant. Does it even matter? I looked in the reservoir and it looked red but i don't know. I just got this car so i don't know what coolant is right for it, my dad already went and bought red coolant for it though… Was just curious if red would work for it.
Yes it should work - as far as I'm aware the red coolant had better ingredients and is of better quality that the green coloured coolant
Hondas require Honda low silicate BLUE coolant. Green is higher silicate and red is either HOAT or OAT.
Your Honda requires that you use silicate free coolant. Zerex Asian Formula coolant meets Honda Specs. http://www.oreillyauto.com/site/c/detail/AFZA/675130/04188.oap?year=2004&make=Honda&model=Civic&vi=1425462&ck=Search_04188_1425462_-1&pt=04188&ppt=C0059
Peak will also work well. http://www.oreillyauto.com/site/c/detail/AFZ7/PEAK5050LL/04188.oap?year=2004&make=Honda&model=Civic&vi=1425462&ck=Search_04188_1425462_-1&pt=04188&ppt=C0059
- What's the deal with honda not being able to use coolants with silicates if it makes the coolant better and safer for the engine. Reason? Is it for a reason or just honda wants our cars to last shortly? Any more answers i was checking out that video then checked and notice newer cars don't use the coolant anymore so what's the deal we have to go back to inferior coolant i've read it eats the seals in cars? Any more information?
