Question on the coolant drain. The brp brand comes premixed. System holds about 1 gallon. If I pull the lower radiator hoses. How much coolant comes out. How do you guys that have changed coolant get it all out. What is your procedure.

The correct method is drain and refill with DI water, run up to temp, then drain again. Not sure what the mix ratio is on what you bought. Most times the residual blends and still offers a lot of corrosion protection.

I haven't bought coolant yet. If I drain and refill with distilled water and drain again. I would think using a 50/50 mix would be to weak since you can't get all the water out of the engine block. I think you need at least 2 quarts of straight coolant since it's a 1 gallon system. Than top off with distilled water. Brp doesn't sell straight coolant. Is there a good aftermarket brand people are using.

I agree with BRP on thermal paste (thank you BajaRon for your spark plug kit) and disagree with BRP on distilled water flush.
