Default Delo ELC Coolant and Restore Substitutes?

I cant locate these products anywhere near me and wanted to do the filter install and flush this weekend before a trip. Are there any substitite products?

As much as I have read on this topic, pages and pages on this and other forums, I'm surprised no responses. I have spent the ENTIRE DAY calling around to different stores, NO ONE knows what an CAT ELC-1 rating is and I can't find anywhere to get it. Napa suggested this: http://www.cumminsfiltration.com/pdf...es/LT36237.pdf

Not just anyone. Some are for gas engines & some for Diesel's. Read carefully or just call them for info.

Found the cummins fleet products at napa. Going to be doing an egr delete and oil cooler change in a couple weeks and decided to wait and do everything at once. Dont wanna chemical flush now and clog the oil cooler before a trip.

Been using the detroit diesel ELC. Works great and much cheaper.

ES Compleat OAT will work just fine. It meets EC-1 and Cummins 14603 same as Delo ELC.
