More Information...
Coolant, also known as antifreeze, has a few important jobs: It cools the engine, provides heat to the cabin and protects against freezing. Coolant also has important additives to prevent corrosion inside the cooling system. A coolant pH of 8 and above will provide protection against corrosion. Coolant with a pH of 7.5 or lower will begin to corrode the inside of the engine causing widespread failures.
