Waterless Coolant

[me61ic]

I was watching the other day a tv program from Discovery channel (Wheeler Dealers) where Ed China (the mechanic in the program) fixes a TR6, he then switches from a water based coolant to a waterless coolant that apparently does not rust the cooling system of the engine. As there is no more water as a base it does also increase the boiling point to 180º, and also decreases the freezing point.

Here you have a link to that part of the program: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZW8fFno7RvE

I am seriously considering using it when the time comes to that point in the restoration of my BJ7, and I might as well switch all my “less used” collection cars to that waterless coolant (https://www.evanscooling.com/), at least in those that use coolant . I was wondering if any of you, guys, are using it and what your thoughts are about the product, in theory all are advantages…

One disadvantage, it does not mix with water or normal coolant.
So in case of a leak during a trip .... you need a sprare x Liters in the boot
Or a full flush and exchange when home afterwards
