Has anyone ever used evans coolant? Waterless coolant seems like an interesting concept.

Never used it but unless you frequent sub freezing temps on a regular I would say it's a waste

I've used it in a race car; the stuff is pretty awesome.
It's not for subzero temps...
The Evan's Coolant has an extremely high boiling point. This means that
1) you can run a lower pressure radiator cap without having to worry about boiling
2) Every engine - I don't care how it's setup has hot spots. Pockets in the heads where water vaporizes around the exhaust ports. The Evan's won't boil.

On the downside. The stuff is expensive, can't be mixed with water any other coolant of any sort, and it's slippery. If there's the littlest flaw in any seal in the cooling system this stuff will find it and leak out.

ive read that its non corrosive so aluminum radiators would be great. Might do a full flush with this next year

If you do keep us posted. It's a lifetime coolant as well right? So in the long run the cost is kinda negated. Seems like a really nice upgrade from conventional coolant

I also think it's waste. There might be more than one time when you need to drain coolant to service your car. For example, I did timing belt service about a year ago which required draining the coolant. Now, I will need to drain it again to replace my brittle turbo inlet and cold day leaking dumb fuel rail. I will have to drain again in the future if/when my old radiator decide to crack. I guess that's part of owning aging car. I mean you will benefit that waterless coolant if you are going to keep your ride for a long time right?......
