Thoughts on this coolant?
Can't find the Rotella NF free coolant near by, but the truck supply place I get my lift pump filters from sells this brand of coolant and just wondering if it's comparable to the Rotella stuff? Good to go or no?

I too had trouble finding the Rotella ELC. I eventually found enough at 2 different Tractor Supplies. Pretty much every auto parts store in my area sold the Peak stuff for fleet vehicles. I was told by some on this forum that the Peak coolant is a good alternative. I guess if the stuff your looking at is rated Cat EC1, you should be good.

Agree on the full strength of you can find it. Dilution is a good reason if you’re not pulling both drain plugs. My reason is why would I want to pay close to the same price for 50% of a product. I can get distilled water anywhere.
