Coolant Change

You must be careful with some of these custom blend products as they don't contain antifreeze.
Products like "WaterWetter" is a prime example..........it will freeze at temps below 32F.
Engine Ice shown above is fine as it does contain a certain percentage of antifreeze and will protect to -26F along with added benefits of running cooler than standard coolant.

No it's not an antifreeze.........but it's not just an additive either.....
It can be used as a complete coolant along with distilled water, as long as you don't run into freezing temps.

Its a surfactanct as we discussed in my fluid powers class, it lowers surface tension... on that note I argue dishsoap can produce similiar results. :-P
(I'm sure there is a sudsy reason we don't though lol)

i used waterwetter when i had my sportbike for trackdays and since i did not ride in freezing temps i never used antifreeze and changing it was a breeze.
that engine ice bottle says that it is biodegradable...so does that mean you do not have to recycle it? I dont mind changing my own antifreeze but getting rid of it responsibly is a hassle.
it looks more expensive but the convenience would out weigh that for me.
