[QUOTE="cobracide, post: 10920098, member: 4644"] Electrolysis IS preventable by checking grounds. Yes there will always be a electrical potential difference between EVERYTHING. It's NOT always significant enough for damaging electrolysis to occur. An acidic coolant or improper grounding can set up a voltage potential difference. What that potential difference as measured in Volts is debatable and dependent on materials involved, I have seen .1V to.3V thrown around, typically it's .1V. Ground to the battery, positive lead in the coolant, NOT touching the radiator. It's better to minimize the voltage by proper grounding and regular coolant changes with distilled water than to use a "band-aid" device such as an anode. Addressing the problem directly is much more effective. Sorry but Voltage is measurable and is a direct measurement of the electrolysis action. If you don't think that is the case, then your idea on how electricity works is very flawed to say the least. :beer: [/QUOTE]
