What kind of antifreeze goes in a 4 wheeler?
Any ethylene glycol based coolant mixed at 50/50 or 60/40 coolant-water will work just fine for you.
Can you put regular antifreeze in a four wheeler?
You can use even car coolants in ATVs as long it is compatible with Aluminum. But remember for long-lasting performance, it is always better to go with ATV coolants that are specific to your engine type.
What kind of coolant does my snowmobile need?
For snowmobiles, there are two types of antifreeze: glycol-based and dex-cool based. Choosing a glycol-based one is always going to benefit your snowmobile, and unlike dex-cool based antifreeze, it will not cause any acid buildup or rust inside your cooling system.
What color is Arctic Cat antifreeze?
ounce bottle, the liquid is purple and its about $15 a bottle. Its good because it will work with anything. But if you are using anything else be sure to look at both to see if they can be mixed. 2011 Arctic Cat CFR 800, Boondocker Control box, 1.5″ Roetin Hornets, D&D Clutch kit, Set up for Stock Class drag racing.
What type of glycol is in antifreeze?
ethylene glycol
What is antifreeze? A glycol-based fluid made primarily from ethylene glycol or propylene glycol, antifreeze is one of the components of the fluid used in the cooling system of your car.
Can you use Dexcool in ATV?
Dont use Dexcool. Having a plugged radiator could cause you motor to overheat but it should start running bad before it belches out all the fluid. Sounds like you might have a leak in the system, maybe a bad water pump.
What is ethylene glycol antifreeze?
Ethylene glycol is a chemical commonly used in many commercial and industrial applications including antifreeze and coolant. Ethylene glycol helps keep your car’s engine from freezing in the winter and acts as a coolant to reduce overheating in the summer.
How do I know what type of antifreeze to use?
How to Check a Vehicle’s Coolant/Antifreeze
- Rather than open the cap on the radiator, just check to see whether the liquid reaches the “Full” line on the side of the coolant reservoir shown here.
- Coolant is usually red, green, blue, or yellow.

Is it OK to mix IAT and OAT antifreeze?
The only universal part of coolant is water – different coolant types should never be mixed. Some studies show that mixing IAT and OAT antifreeze actually caused more corrosion than water alone (remember the GM Dexcool issue above!).
What does IAT stand for in antifreeze?
Traditional antifreeze (the old green stuff) is known as IAT antifreeze, which refers to Inorganic Acid Technology. It was fortified with silicates and phosphates, which were used primarily to keep corrosion down within the system.
What kind of antifreeze should I put in my system?
If you are unsure what antifreeze is in your system, the antifreeze is brown, an off-color from what is recommended, or what has been put in is an HOAT “all makes” antifreeze, the best option is to plan a flush as soon as possible. Lastly, we need to discuss water, because it’s actually not the easy part!
