Coolant for PCR machines.

I just picked up two PE2400 machines, but they are having cooling problems. One has no coolant in it. What type of coolant should I use? Is this just radiator coolant?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Larry

This is a good question. I do know that that the PE2400 had a major design flaw in regards the cooling unit. I have owned a couple in the past that have had to be fixed (I think one was fixed three time). We just sent them off to be fixed so I have no idea what the coolant used is. I guess you could try using radiator fluid - the worst that could happen is you destroy them :)
