Should I be worried? I don't plan on doing a coolant flush to get rid of the tap water, but want to get everyone's input. I'm sure the car will evaporate some of this and I'll need to top it off again sometime in the near future, and that time I will use distilled water, but would appreciate some input.
Thanks!

Will probably not do any harm, but don't make it a habit. Distilled water is so cheap at the grocery store, that it makes no sense not to go get some.
