Description
Fleetguard DCA2 supplemental coolant additive (SCA) — the nitrite/borate chemistry required by GM Duramax, Caterpillar, and Detroit Diesel engines and approved for marine and railroad applications. Used to charge or recharge a diesel cooling system to protect against cylinder-liner pitting (cavitation erosion) and to neutralize acid build-up. Sold in pint bottles (DCA30L) and larger pack sizes — verify the listed package size before ordering quantity.
