Hi Tefer,
You'd have to make sure that it has the necessary corrosion inhibitors for aluminium engines and is also low in silicates, just as mickvp has stated. Personally I wouldn't use it if it doesn't meet those parameters.


Yeah noticed that MickVP got Halfords stuff, not sure if its this? http://www.halfords.com/motoring/engine-...e-5-litres


Post is over two years old but thought i'd ask here rather than start new?

I've just used this in my mighty Aprilia Leonardo 150 twist'n'go that I use to hack backwards and forwards to work and the guy in Halfords advised me to flush my system right through as if you mix it with the blue antifreeze it turns to was and jams up the water pump. I just pulled the bottom hose off the engine and kept pouring clean tap water into the expansion tank until it ran completely clear out of the engine. I know it's not a Fazer but the principle is the same. Smile
