I was going to use G-05 in the FZ6. I have a bunch laying around. Any reason not to use this. It's low silicate / phosphate free. I've flushed about 3 gal of distilled through the system and it's nice an clear awaiting a refill. What's the opinion of flush chem's? The only mention I could find of G0-5 through the search was back in 2018 and it didn't say one way or the other, just what it was.
Thx!

Nobody's used Zerex G-05? It's a HOAT style. I guess I'll be the guinea pig. Seems like the consensus from my reading is that as long as you use a ethylene glycol based no or low silicate for alum blocks you'll be fine.

I have had very good luck with Zerex for Toyota vehicles....so as the opportunity arose, I used it in GM, Husqvarna, Suzuki, Honda, Lexus, etc. vehicles....

Each time I do a very thorough flush with distilled water a few times, blow out the remaining fluid, refill.

All vehicles so far are doing well, some have very considerable time and mileage on them since the changeover
