Salt on the other hand really speeds things up.[/b]

The water I was referring to was tap water, which is laden with minerals and chemicals such as calcium, iron and chlorine. Distilled water which is what is used as a pure water option in a car's cooling system contains no minerals - It is 100% pure H2O and will not corrode the cooling system components over time.

ANYWAY back to the topic of cleaning MBC's.&nbsp; If you use water make sure you blow it all out and dry it really well. [/quote]
