Evans coolant propylene glycol12/9/2023 Will have a look into what you said about the possible mineral issue tho. Its then mixed with a concentrated antifreeze with anti fungal and corrosion inhibitor to what ever dilution the bottle says.īeen doing it this way since i was a kid same as my grandfather taught me near as i know my family have been doing the same thing for near 50 years.Never had a problem so far. I just use it as i have the stuff to make it myself, the logic being there is less shit in it. Pre-Mixed antifreeze should have 2% inhibitor.įlush your system with clean water whenever you change the anti-freeze to remove unwanted compounds then fill with fresh AF.ĭisclaimer: The comments above may be predicted text and not necessarily the opinion of MCN. Anti-freeze that has to be mixed should have 4% inhibitor then a 50:50 mix will provide 2% inhibitor and freeze protection down to -40° Centipede. Just ensure the antifreeze has inhibitor added. Batteries do not like tap water.Ī decent quality Glycol antifreeze at a 50% 50:50 mixed with clean water (tap water or bottled out of ASDA etc.) is all you need. I think people confuse cooling systems with lead acid batteries. It probably eats the surface of the metal it is protecting as the water will have practically zero minerals in it. Just dont be a lazy twat and flush the system out yearly. Personally i just use distilled tapwater dirt cheap and works Many racetracks wont allow propylene glycol (and Evans by name). An obvious reason would be a holed radiator dripping on to the headers. As a coolant, Evans gets around the corrosive properties of water by eliminating water and since the propylene glycol has a higher viscosity than water, that addresses the issue of cavitation as well. It is good for keeping out corrosion, but shit as a coolant.Īs its also flammable, meaning if your bike sprung a coolant leak its entirely possible the whole machine could light up. Its flammable slippery as fuck and does not transmit heat well. Two blokes who have forgot what the fuck built their channels in the first place.Īs for evans, its just propylene or ethylene glycol. Making petty vids about each other like a right pair of fucking tarts. Some decent knowledge but i un-subbed the pair of them last year.
