Re: [DML] *** SS water return pipe = Battery ***

[Jonathan Minor <malletslinger@xxxxxxxxx>]

I am also curious about the reaction between AL and
stainless...When I replaced the water pump in my 89
camaro about a year and a half ago, the bolts were
eaten away and I wanted to replace them with new bolts
that would last forever(stainless) but I was told not
to because a reaction between stainless and AL creates
a charge, so I got some regular bolts.
I also thought of that when I herd about the stainless
overflow bottle... Can someone explain?
