One exception might be something like water wetter coolant but I say that without any evidence or knowledge of it causing any issue whatsoever.
This we know.. A filter would be nice to now remove the previous contaminants. Maybe CSmith12 doesn't have contaminants in his system, but I do, and I'd rather pull it out with a filter than disassemble the whole engine and physically clean all the passages.
