Xps 730x H2C ceramic cooling unit

I still have the xps 730x h2c because its one of the best computers dell has made, though I have an issue. I cant find the h2c cooler anywhere for sale and I believe the coolant in mine has depleted over the last six years and want to know what I can fill it with. (Don't give me the its a closed unit  I can see the pressure valve and interact with it)

The coolant is the same as what your car uses 50/50 mix. Made by Delphi in mexico.

Keep in mind that this substance is toxic and will kill your motherboard if it leaks.  JM614 I believe is the part number to look for on ebay.

Thanks for the quick response ill be sure to do this soon also should a painters mask and goggles suffice as protection as a precautionary measure?

Rubber gloves and safety glasses are definitely advisable.  A face shield might be a better choice.

Ethylene glycol is very poisonous and can cause severe damage to your heart, kidneys and brain. It can cause death. When USING or Cleaning up spills of antifreeze all adults need to wear gloves because ethylene glycol can cause damage to internal organs through skin absorption. Inhalation of the fumes can also cause brain damage.

Ahh okay yah when you said toxic I immediately thought super glue it might burn a little not death internal organ melting etc. I'll just use my welding mask with the little eye flap opened (still has clear plastic under it) and my "I'm working with something that may electrocute me" gloves.

There are some for sale on eBay now. When/if you get one, make sure you check the (4) mounting screws where the unit mounts over the CPU. I bought one and something as simple was not working out as I could not get any 2 screws to mount. The spacing between the screws was too short.  It turns out there is a plastic insert on the bracket for each screw which can be "reversed" and spread out further on the bracket. I suspect the heatsink used on the 730 vs 730x is not the same.
