Re: Using water soluble oil in radiator to lubricate the water pump ?

Lathe soluble oil is readily available and works well. It's primary purpose was as a corrosion inhibitor. An egg cup full per radiator. I now use Water Wetter in all of my old vehicles. You never see any rusty lathe coolant systems. However, as with the other soluble oils, they rot your rubber hoses. You get only 30 years out of them instead of 60 years. I'm happy to get another 30 years myself, to get to the "ton".
