Old coolant can become
acidic and eat away your expensive radiator, head, and engine block. Acustrip
for Dexcool (extended life) or Conventional coolants can give you early
warning of problems. Simply dip an Acustrip into your coolant. The test
patches on the strip will change color. Use the color chart below to determine
PH and coolant concentration for Dexcool, or Reserve Alkalinity and concentration
for conventional anti-freeze. If your coolant tests out of range, then
you should drain, flush, and refill your system. Don't take a chance...make
Acustrip a part of your annual checkout procedure. Use it for all your
cars! Each strip is good for one use.
Interpreting D-Acustrip.
Dip the strip in your cooling system header tank (engine cold). Allow it
to stay in the coolant for a second or two. Shake it off, then compare
to the charts below within one minute. Your coolant should be around PH
9. If it becomes acidic, then copper and aluminum components will be in
danger. Less likely, coolant that becomes too alkaline can also be risky.
For conventional coolants, the strips read Reserve Alkalinity rather than
PH. This is a measure of how much acid can be disolved in the coolant before
it becomes harmful.
