Hi,
Did a bit of searching on this one but not even the service manual has any information... :confused:

What is acceptable level for a cooling system electrolysis test? Someone told me a while back but I forgot, and googling it brings up values all the way from 0.10v to 0.5v as all being the limit. My test revealed 0.125v.
 






Ground the positive probe to the radiator, insert the negative probe and a reading of 0.2volts or less is good. 0.5 volts or more and the system should be flushed to prevent corrosion.
