Doesn’t look like spam to me. It does confirm my confusion over all the different types, I understand the reasons for different oils, but this is crazy. They all do the same thing, it’s differences in corrosion inhibitors that seems to cause all the variety.

I read Motor magazine . . . it really is an online trade magazine aimed at professional mechanics

And I read it regularly, because I want to keep up with the latest stuff. And every month there are good case studies.

Whether the guy is actively trying to promote motor magazine, that does seem like a possibility

We stock several different types of coolant in our warehouse.

The clear coolant seems like another attempt to get the cars into the dealership for work. If MB can turn off enough indie shops, where else can the owner turn but a dealership?

I’m feeling jaded this morning.

May not be actual Spam but promoting publications and having your screen name as a link to your web site might not meet forum rules.

The article posted was published in 2004. Was it authoritative then? Is it now?

When in doubt, use the coolant recommended for the engine by the carmaker.

It would be a lot easier if you just provided the link.

I totally agree and will change my username or delete my account. Spamming was not my goal. This is a great community

Elaborate on what?

Changing the username?

Deleting the account?

Spamming?

This is a great community? . . . I happen to agree with that 😃
