I have the same stuff. Someone here said not to bother with it, if using distilled water and PT nuke, and not mixing metals, and it it might create gunk in your block. But i've read more then a few people mixing those 3 together.
I think I want to learn for myself if it is bad. I don't care too much about losing a little tiny bit of cooling, for some color, and anti-corrosive (even if i don't need it, and piece of mind.
People talk about mixing copper and aluminum, but what about other metals such as brass, nickel, steel, ect? Somewhere in my reading, someone said that if 2 metals are far apart on the this chart, you risk galvanic corrosion.

if that is true, what about the distance from copper and brass on the chart? (most fitting are nickel plated brass - the plating is not always perfect.. the threads on my dangerden fill port are already flaking, and I haven't even used it yet lol).
So someone enlighten me without just telling me to read the stickies (which don't even mention cooling fluid)
