[AT] antifreeze

[Cecil Bearden]

I made the decision a couple of years ago to never use anything but 
distilled water and antifreeze for topping off, and replacement after a 
cooling system repair.   It has saved me many long nights of testing 
radiators that are too far down to reach the coolant and having to crawl 
underneath and find a drain valve to extract a teaspoon of coolant out 
of, then finding out that it only had colored water in it and having to 
start an engine that had not been running in 7 or 8 months.  This year I 
double checked, but it only took about an hour....
