That looks very interesting mate, I'm gonna give that a whirl in the 70. Don't suppose you know how much it is?

[claymore]

I'll find out tomorrow for you

I'm interested too, after our chat today :)

I'm more intrigued by the "sponsors". What are you sponsored for?

For being a nutter :)

What do you mean, like all sponsors, they like exposure, and my car is quite eye catching :)

I've been using it for a year. No problems so far and no leaks for a 10 year old 850-T5.
You need to really dry out your engine before using it

Interesting vid, must have crap caps on them bottles as he must have tightened it a half dozen times lol.
How do you go about drying your system? Do you drain it and leave it for a while or what?

All the coolant hoses are taken off along with the water plug at the engine block (rear) side. Radiator and coolant tank of course. I'll shoot in the compressed air on these items and the engine block. Leave them off for a day and another round of compressed air treatment. I also have a refractometer to see any water contaminents when I close up everything and poured in the Evans. Supposed to be less than 3% of water is allowed.
