I just realised that it has been a couple of years since we built my T/A and put in fresh antifreeze. I try to flush the cooling system yearly and replace the antifreeze, but missed it on this one. I've read up on Evans coolant and like the idea of a coolant that is non-corrosive and doesn't boil until 375 degrees (about 150 degrees above the max my car should ever see). I don't like the idea of a $32.50 per gallon price.

That brings me to my next question, is there a difference between running Evans NPG and running Peak PG coolant full strength? I know that Evans blends glycols for better flow in cold weather, but my car is in So Cal where it never sees a temp below 40 degrees and typically never below 50 degrees, since we only see 40 degree temps at night. Also it is not a daily driver and I try not to drive it in the rain, so it probably never operates in a temp below 65-70 degrees. By the way, before I get "flamed" for not wanting to get the car wet or muddy, I try to not drive in the rain only because the 5 speed becomes a 3 speed in the rain since 1st and 2nd gears are pretty much useless. The drill in the rain is to let the clutch out in 1st gear, get the rear wheels spinning, and then go directly to 3rd gear to get some traction.
