Prestone, copied right from the jug.

"Collect used antifreeze and dispose according to local laws and regulations. Where permited we recommand disposal in sanitary sewer systems. Do not drain onto ground or into storm drainage systems".

Like I said pour it down the sanitary system. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/devilgrin.gif

Wow! As a septic system owner, I certainly wouldn't risk pouring it into my sanitary system! I can't imagine the stuff wouldn't kill the bugs.

Isolated disposals in this manner probably wouldn't have much effect on large treatment systems, but I suspect that if enough of this stuff got into a smaller plant, it could reek havoc on their bugs as well.
