Is there some secret that I'm missing about mixing coolant? Does it really need to be mixed that thoroughly? I've always just added a bit to a 5gal pail, and filled with water. If the tank is really down, I'll run the hose, and add concentrate. Run the pump for a bit, and it's mixed enough to check concentration. Why all the fuss about mixing?
Its apparently a big deal, that is why a proper mixer is like $900..
OIL!! Oil In Last!!
From Uli, the Blaser Guru, and there is a Blaser guy floating around here, maybe he can explain it
better.. It has something to do with the emulsion..
If you add water to your oil, you end up with a reverse emulsion. I'm not sure on the whole thing,
but it apparently has worse heat distribution properties along with other issues..
Just from my own experience.. Put some oil(coolant) in a bucket, or use a small amount in a cup.
Then add a small amount of water, approximately the same amount... You end up with Curds, chunks.
I don't understand it all, or even a little bit of it, but, YES, it apparently is a big deal to get
the best performance out of your coolant.
