Engine coolant. There's a number of different formulations today to meet different anti-corrosion requirements. The owner's manual will describe those requirements or the guys at the auto parts stores will have the right stuff. Usually it gets mixed with 50 percent water unless you buy stuff that's already mixed. That should cost much less per gallon because it's half water.
