ELC Coolant

Just wondering the best place to pick up ELC coolant. My boy has his truck in the shop and has to pick some up by Monday. Do the regular auto parts stores carry it. I haven't been able to find it. They you, Chet

Do you have a Walmart near by with a Murphy USA out front. They might have Fleet Guard on the rack by the casher.

I got mine from O'Reillys. They didn't have it their store, but had it that afternoon from their warehouse. Peak Final Charge ELC. Also, are there OTR truck dealers nearby? They should have it in stock. Most of all the late models are using it now.

Petroleum outlet stores will carry them.

One other place you can look is if you have a Big Truck Stop near by they may have some. How ever may be a little over priced.

Most of the big name dealers should be. We have some in the Houston area that are open 24/7. Gotta keep them diesels rollin'. 10-4! I have to be on call on alternating weekends to keep our fleet trucks going. This is my weekend. Trying to work on getting my mods done for RRE. Work always seems to get in the way.

Thanks for the help Stewart. I found a Caterpillar place in riverside that was open till noon. Picked up 3 gallons Cat Elc, $15.79 each. Its for my boys 6.0L. He has it at Ford and is doing ARP's, BulletProof oil cooler and ERG upgrade and other things. He has a warranty by ford for 200,000miles. They cover the labor but he bought the parts. Towing his 5er wasn't maken it. To heavy and long 40'. It would of been great to check out the Evan coolant no water and boil point at 365 with know pressure cap but I think this would do. Had to have it by Monday. God bless, Chet
