I ask the question to all who are bashing Evans coolant. Have you ever used it? Let me help them out... No. Hey haven’t Ask about Evans in the racing and engine tech forum and you’ll get a completely different response. The guys who DO use it love the stuff. That’s why it’s in my build.
I’m listening.

Yeah, except a search of the forum doesn't agree with your claim.
They say there are no such thing as a stupid question.
They say there is always the exception that proves the rule.
Don't be the exception.

No. Hey haven’t Ask about Evans in the racing and engine tech forum and you’ll get a completely different response. The guys who DO use it love the stuff. That’s why it’s in my build. I contemplated the use of this is a few fresh builds over the years, but I never pulled the trigger because I was hesitant of Evans claims, sure the race guys might swear by it, and the competition diesel rigs use it, but they're in a situation where the engine is torn down fully/partially after a few runs or season, so they haven't seen the long term effects of it in an engine, most of the real resto guys (screw Jay Leno) won't endorse it's use, in long term use (1-3 yrs)those that have used it in restos have experienced rapid corrosion problem with zinc plated components, and or copper based components, as well as an unusual amounts of leaks from fittings/gaskets/hose ends/etc, so Lindy your going to be the official Moparts guinea pig for the Evans challenge...we'll be waiting for feedback?...

Mike I guess I am, Mike! I’m invested. Oink! I’ve talked to multiple guys who’ve run it long term that wouldn’t use anything else. I’ve benefited so much from the great advice from the guys (like you) on moparts over the years. You can bet I’ll be posting my results down the road. Some of the most valuable advice on here is in regard to what NOT to buy.
I’m listening.

To the question about RV antifreeze, that is 50% propylene glycol, 50% water. BTW POLYpropylene glycol would be a solid as the poly means it has polymerized. SIERRA antifreeze which is supposed to safe for dogs to drink is propylene glycol, plus rust inhibitors and seal lubricant. Here is its SDS. https://www.peakhd.com/wp-content/upload...lant.pdf?x38462
