will this work on dex cool coolant?

I used on a Dex Cool engine, Cadillac, it seemed to work for a while but eventually I ended up replacing the engine.

I just had regular coolant (green) and it worked very well. I even got in a freeway accident that caused a complete loss of coolant on the spot. When I got it home I refilled and added another dose of Bars Leak and it actually worked again. As for that specific type of coolant you might have to contact Bars Leak or just see if it does. The alternative is mechanical repair $$$

This is straight, undiluted coolant. You will need to add water, preferably deionized.

Yes, with a caveat. The pump will burn out due to the extra volume of coolant being moved through the new system. I would not suggest modifying this as it was created to continuously move a specific volume of coolant thus diminishing its reliability.

I do not believe so, however you can test your unit by preparing a proper ice bath: http://www.thermoworks.com/blog/2010/10/making-a-proper-ice-bath/

yes. just be sure to flush system completely . no water or regular coolent is used with this product.

This will work with any radiator or heat exchange coil. While I haven't checked, some people claim up to a 20psi drop in system pressure which is an increase in efficiency and system longevity. http://www.ericthecarguy.com/forum/18-The-EricTheCarGuy-Video-Forum/51745-increasing-ac-performance-by-cleaning-condensers?limitstart=0

If you have space to mount it, you can probably get it to work on almost anything.Drawing coolant from the lowest part of the cooling system and putting it back on the engine side of the thermostat(you don't want the radiator cooling what you're trying to heat).Could require creative plumbing.

Purple Ice is compatible with traditional ethylene glycol antifreeze (green) and GM Dex-Cool antifreeze coolants.

To a point it will work. However, it will not remove all of the fluid from the pump because of the pump's design, nor will it remove the fluid from the lines or cooler. Maybe consider just getting a pan, loosening the return line, and drain all the fluid.

Not necessary. It can be added to existing coolant as long as the coolant/water mixture is correct.

I have used this, and it worked good for me. I first drained all coolant from car, then flushed the cooling system with clean water until clean clear water was all in the motor block, and radiator. You must remove the thermostat before flush, and sealer is ran. After good flushing, drain some of the water , then add the head sealer , top off with water in the radiator. Now let the car run for a few hr's. Get it warm. Don't let it over heat. Some say they leave it in a few days, and drive it with the sealer in before re-filling with proper coolant. It will not work if any coolant is in the system when using the head sealer. I have used it on 2 cars, and both are fine now. Worked great for me.

I would think your mechanic would have a better answer than me, as he likely has training and experience. An update is that my vehicle started to make steam similar to about 10 percent of a steam locomotive. This later lead to a diagnosis of a stress fracture of the prestone type T adapter to power flush the coolant every two years. The material for this repair was only about 3 bucks! No leaks after the mechanical repair. Luckily it was not a head gasket. I do not know for sure, but likely if it does work, it will only be temporary.

No it will be ok . I used my pump for dextron 6. Solvents like alcohol acetone and brake cleaner will in time eat at the seals inside. Very good tool very happy with it .,...

I dont really know, but if you decided to use it, flush the cooling system completely before using the red coolant. I don think its good to mix green and red coolant.

There is nothing in the documentation that says. I don't know why it would need to be. All it does is filter the coolant.

I used mine on a liquid cooled snowmobile but I also have a 8N and the length of the sensor from the gauge on the dash to the front off the engine is more than enough. In fact, you will probably need to coil up a bit.

Hi, you can use, but Can't mix with any another antifreeze. Will be better, if you check your Honda maintenance book ( I think need TYPE 1)
