I finally found the time to replace the coolant in my B3030 this weekend. I used a Prestone coolant system flush and 50/50 mix of some kind of heavy duty ethylene glycol, I changed my color from green to red. I flushed out the overflow also.

Question, I would have expected the flush or the rinse cycle to have shown some evidence of something, the fluid that came out from the flush and then from the rinse looked just as clear as the stuff I put in. Anyone have similar results?

I was kinda dreading doing this but it turned out that it was pretty easy, cost me $38 including a fancy device to pull the coolant out of the overflow.
