OK, I thought i would quickly add a not for all, mainly those in Tassie and colder regions. We have had cars recently freezing up their cooling systems.....this is not pretty when it all goes wrong, so go get yourself some decent antifreeze and change that water in your radiator to the corrct antifreeze ratio thats labeled on the container. Make sure it IS antifreeze because alot of them are not, they are just coloured water!

Thanks for the heads up Flav, I've been trying not to start my Staz in the coldest part of the day for this reason. I certainly will need to check the water in the radiator and get some antifreeze, I would have no idea whats in there at the moment.

The problem isn't starting, it's the water freezing and bursting things.

Can't believe some of you guys not needing Anti-Freeze, our first frost about 3/4 weeks ago. You should run it anyway cos i know new heads are cheap but anti freeze is easy compared to watching your cylinder head dissolve over a few years
Any way going to Melbourne next month 4 week off/bender it better not be to cold

I bet Redzone would have nothing to input into a discussion on Ant-Freeze. Bloody warm Queenslanders :D
