man that would suck, i guess i will have to try some other ones. I took my sample right from the coolant resevoir, is that ok? I know it said NOT to take it from an overflow bottle, but there isn't really an overflow, its all just the same. I didn't drain any from the rad pet****.

Are you using the Penray Need Release filters? I was just reading about them and it says if you change the filters every 18 months, the Fleet Charge coolant becomes a lifetime coolant. Anybody doing this?

I got the FleetGuard strips and mine came in little packages that you tear open. I took my sample from the pet**** and let it sit for a few minutes cause it was still alittle warm. Mine tested low on the additive so I added a pint and will test again this weekend. I drained the coolant into a clear glass cup and after I let it sit for alittle bit there was a bunch of crap siitng at the bottom. I immediately ordered the coolant filter from dieselsite and will be installing it this weekend.
