For a 1981 VW Rabbit Diesel, it is recommended to use a high-quality coolant specifically formulated for diesel engines, typically a mixture of ethylene glycol and water. A 50/50 mix of antifreeze and distilled water is standard to provide adequate freeze protection and cooling efficiency. Make sure the coolant meets the appropriate specifications, such as ASTM or SAE standards, and avoid using silicated coolants, as they can harm the engine's components. Always consult the owner's manual for specific recommendations or requirements.
