beta_trials Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 This is probably something that has been asked before but Im curious about which type of coolant is best to use in a trials bike. Ive heard things about a product called engine ice before. Which is a good coolant that will keep my 94 techno running a little cooler in a hot climate in Colorado. Give me your opoinions ideas tips and tricks guys. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan williams Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 A '94 can get away with almost any good coolant because it has aluminum cases but engine ice is certainly a good choice. The problem with the later bikes is many have magnesium cases and non-deionized water accelerates corrosion. Engine ice and Silkolene Pro-Cool are a ready to use mixes of propylene glycol and deionized water so you don't have to worry about corrosion and the dog can lick it up without dying if you spill it. Not the case with "traditional" coolants based on ethylene glycol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
