i do have a lot of practical knowledge on the subject
i've spent 25 years protecting yachts from seawater and large expensive diesel engines from their coolants and the seawater they use as a cooling source

now, help me out a little

what exactly is wrong with my post/information?
is galvanic corrosion not a flow of electrons?
or that the fillport is not connected the sources of copper?
this is just not smart, if it's a metal rad box and there happens to be a ground short, well good luck or if any of the mounting bolts happen to touch the case and the case touches the rad box....
when i said this, "while using inhibitors will work (assuming he is AL free currently, big assumption) why add AL to a copper only system."
i meant that it is not a good idea to add AL to a copper system because why add risk
cavitation can be a serious concern in the cooling systems of marine diesels

thanks bill
