Also did you flush out your existing coolant thouroughly before putting the engine ice in? Engine ice isn't compatable with regular antifreeze. So if there was any green antifreeze left, it could be reacting with the Engine ice.

That's what I was thinking.

I swear by Engine Ice for my Ducs...

Engine ice is good below freezing. Can't remember how cold though. The jug I had in the garage never froze down to 0

Ran it in the 9R and it lowered temps by like 20*

But as you said check the t-stat opening temp. That will determine its help value. My 9r opened at like 160 so it lowered it from like 190* to 170*

I ran it in my 900RR and it dropped temps about 10 degrees. Not a huge difference, but it made it run cooler sitting in stop and go traffic, which was my main goal.

I have it in both the TL and CBR, and they both run a little cooler. The biggest thing I've noticed is that they take longer to get hot ie. when sitting in traffic.

I think gas is color blind cause. I have a bottle in my garage and its most definitely a violet shade.

Trip, you are a faggot. I'm surprised you didn't say lavender or some other gay shit.
