Paraflu 11 Green - Alternatives

[NickP]

I've just fitted a new waterpump and last year when I fitted a crappy 2nd hand one I'm pretty sure I managed to get 2 x 5lt bottles of green paraflu 11... Now I can only seem to find 1lt bottles which will work out expensive. I don't recall where I got this from last time round... Is there an alternative ppl use or should I flush I use something more readily available that will do the job?

Flushing is a bit of a pain but obviously I can't be mixing a blue with whats left at the bottom of the lump or rad.....

That almost answers my question

Begs the question why green paraflu was used?

Blue is what I have in mine.

So that standard is Fiat 9.55523. If you look for a coolant with that standard on it, then it will be ok.

The colour is listed as Green Blue. So you are both right

Clear as mud I will see if I can find a 5lt coolant with that standard, buying 14 x 1lt bottles is pricey!
