HKIC Posted October 1, 2007 Report Share Posted October 1, 2007 I am finishing up the rebuild on my shee and I live in new England. Should I use engine ice or anti freeze when the spring comes? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snopczynski Posted October 1, 2007 Report Share Posted October 1, 2007 regular antifreeze is hard on the rubber parts in your cooling system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bansh-eman Posted October 1, 2007 Report Share Posted October 1, 2007 engine ice will hold up in the winter as well. anti freeze dose nothing for a cooling agent, its simply to keep the fluid from freezing in the winter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Washburn Posted October 1, 2007 Report Share Posted October 1, 2007 Engine Ice has a freeze point of 33 degrese it says so rite on the bottle I wont use it in the winter. I use the Maxima 50/50 blend next spring/summer I will try some engine Ice and hopefully by then I will have my loadline oversize rad.

mr331 Posted October 1, 2007 Report Share Posted October 1, 2007 Engine Ice has a freeze point of 33 -26 degrese it says so rite on the bottle I wont would use it in the winter. I corrected it for you :biggrin: If its colder than -26*, I'm not riding and the freeze point is not and issue. I have tested it and Sand Mountain, Nevada at 4* with no issue. Run the Engine Ice, it works great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
