If you're talking about the pink "non-tox" stuff... yep.

Re: RV anti freeze
 

I have been using it for years in both my jetski's and boat. I called one of the companies a few years ago and asked if it was o.k. to use with aluminum, brass and they said it's fine, although it doesn't have any anti-corrosive properties, like the green stuff...

I have also used it.I love it cause when you are ready to de-winterize you just back it in and start it up.It is non-toxic.Its cheap too

What is this "winterizing" you speak of??? :evilb: :evilb: :evilb:

Re: RV anti freeze
 

It is a complex process to describe. It is a situation in colder areas of the world that ends up making us guys totally irresistable to all hot chicks! We pour this pink koolaid into a bunch of their orifices and it makes them way less fridged! They stay warm and lubed and they R much happier as a result of this. They then pass onto us these "happy" feelings!! :p :p

You can be charged with hazardous waste dumping if you use the green stuff if a wildlife/police officer see's you or whats left of your winterizing. Also, though I am not an animal person, you don't want your kids dog to take a big gulp of the green stuff in the driveway. No more fluffy.............

I've been using it for years. No problems.

Re: RV anti freeze
 

Yeah I never understood why the guys dont just add some bitter to it to discourge dogs from drinking it. Seems like an easy fix.

Re: RV anti freeze
 

Get the -50°F (or lower) stuff. I've seen the regular pink stuff harden at below 0°

Our coldest winters get to -10° but the other winter we had a week around -25°-28° and I can personally tell you that's too freakin cold to run out and check to see if the motors are freezing. :evilb:

Re: RV anti freeze
 

I too have seen it get a bit slushy, never ever saw it freeze, but thats why on my old 454 I would re-drain the risers and block. On the 496, I run 3-4 gallons through it and then pump it all back out, leave it as dry as possible.

Re: RV anti freeze
 

Ther's about 80 million gallons of antifreeze used per year in NEW cars & trucks. That would cost ALOT.

FOOK antifreeze!!

I winterize my boat just like I used to do with my PWC. :evilb: :D :drink:
WFO on the trailer in the driveway. Works great!
