Distilled water is fine if you aren't adding much.

I'll Google it, but what is a sign of a gel issue? I admit, I'm not much of a mechanic, but I've never heard of antifreeze doing that. I don't know what is in the car now - the last service on the coolant was before I got it. I'll probably have it flushed and filled, so it's all the same. And if so, is the Zerex mentioned above a good product?
