Well it is good to see somebody is having good luck with it. I am cat tech and I hate the ELC coolant. I see a lot of cold water leaks like you have already mentioned. Also most of the engines that we have apart that are using the ELC have a lot of cavitation erosion on the liners. I mean even at 400,000-500,000 they are pitted so bad that we have to replace some of them. We use to never see that before ELC came on the market as long as you kept up on the SCA. Being a CAT tech we are big into sampling. I am driving an 06' F-250 with a 6.0. I took a coolant sample at my last oil change(that was at 5,000 mi.) and the sample came back bad. It reccomended flush and refill. I am a beliver in the standard cat coolant. The guys I have gotten to convert over have never been happier. I run it in everything I own. I want to flush and fill my new one with it, but I am scared that it will void my warranty. Sorry for the long post. I do have a question though. When I first got the truck there was a lot of sand in the degas bottle, and it was causing my regulator to stick open. Of course when I took it in it would not act up. I finally put a water filter on and that has helped. I am wondering if this is the norm, or did I get one that did not get cleaned out well enough?
