Be aware of cheaper anti freezes. Some of them contain ethanyol and are combustible and are not for your engine. They look the same but read the label . I was about to use it but called the manufacture and they said do not use on motor it's corrosive. They recommended there other product wich was 3$ more. Use merc oil can't go wrong spend the money. 4qt jug is 4$ cheaper.

Do you guys use RV plumbing antifreeze? Some of the labels I've read state not for engine use...... Or do they just mean as a coolant for an operational engine?
I've traditionally used regular automotive antifreeze, but I'd rather use something non-toxic, and cheaper..... But my baby needs to be safe!
Thx

Anyone know if any truth to that??
Never used it but always use merc oil in my $27kish boat.. the lack of use and how hard we run them warrants the good stuff! I don't have $5-$10k to drop in boat and value was same before new motor! Been there after reversion in last boat!!
