| i might be the only one... but i think you should think about doing away with the red coolant... I like the tube... but with blue would look better | |

| I know...that will be a spring project because I'll have to drain all the fluid. I think there is a BMW coolant that works in our cars that is blue. Way ahead of ya! | |
