Default coolant ?

the bomb takes .58 of a gallon. the engine ice i bought only comes in a half gallon. is this close enough or do you think that 8 hundreths of a gallon makes a difference. I dont want to spend another 15 bucks for another .08 of a gallon.

When I switched to engine ice, I flused the system 5 times with distilled water before adding the engine ice. When I did pour the engine ice in I had just a little bit left in the bottom of my container. Thats after feeling the radiator and the resivor.

After I flushed out my radiator, I could not get a full half gallon of Engine Ice in. So, I had a little bit left over. At least you're smarter than me, I did buy two half gallons.
