    Default What coolant for my ta22

    So just replaced all the hoses, new alloy radiator and a decent 2nd hand heater core, now what coolant should I use, I'm not a fan of the repco brand style green coolant, just Dosnt feel right in your fingers, I used to work for Toyota and we had a big drum of green so I went to Toyota and they say they don't sell it any more,

    I used the search and it was a lot of jibber jabber about which is best but not really
    I'm thinking of the red coolant?
    Any issues here?

    I can't think of exact name, but I know it's a Castrol coolant I think its SF-O from Repco in a small plastic bottle about 200ml size. You need 2 bottles for the TA22.
    This is what my radiator bloke put in mine

    Hi,
    I think Shell coolant is red. Its high quality too. best to mix it 50-50 or 60-40 depending on local environment temp. more coolat concentration for colder region i think...
