Can I use tap water?
I wanted to be the very first to ask the question:
Do I have to use HD licensed water or can I use tap water from a hose when filling the radiator? Will it void my warranty?
Also, where should I put the radiator cap when topping off the fluids?

Not around here, the tap water is pretty rough. You should be okay with bottled water but you still need the HD antifreeze.

Only Holy water from your local (HD sponsered)Catholic Church will not void the warranty.
