Lots of good info in your post, Blake. Thanks.
Water Wetter apparently adds the necessary rust inhibitors.
I wish I had the time to really keep my cooling system in perfect order. I
would:
Use water and Water Wetter in the non-freezing months, 30% AF in the freezing
months.
Flush every time I make the change.
Change thermostats like I used to back in the '60s - 160 deg F in the summer,
180 deg F in the winter.
But I have too many other things to keep me busy!
