[Fot] Aluminum Radiators and Electrolysis

[Allen Washatko]

FoT,

I am now the proud owner of a Ron Davis aluminum radiator. It is so 
beautiful that my wife hasn't complained about it being on display in 
our dining room!

The instruction sheet talks extensively about the issue of electrolysis 
and suggests grounding the radiator as well as the transmission to 
prevent static electricity from traveling to ground through the 
coolant. It also says to not use any brass components in the cooling 
system as brass and aluminum react to each other causing electrolysis. 
The sender unit on my water temperature gage has a brass bulb  that is 
located in the water pump. any thoughts as to what I should do ? I 
don't believe that I have ever seen any other type of metal used.

Allen
