I also run this stuff and to be honest with you, I run such a smaller radiator I cant really tell a difference.

I only get to make about 3 passes and then I have to let mine cool.

When we first bought the DS the fan didn't work. When it was real hot the engine would over heat. We switched to engine ice and never over heated since. We have replaced the fan since then but I am very impressed with engine ice. I swear by it.

i have it in my ds now, and i ran it in my raptor. the raptor fan used to run all the time especially in the woods. i put the engine ice in it and i thought my fan was broke! it only kicked the fan on a couple times on the real hot days after the engine ice. i will be putting it in my outlander soon.

yea i use it as well, love it! I noticed a diff from before and after runs, fan would kick on after so long and then after putting the engine ice in i noticed it took longer for the fan to kick on, so it helps keep things cool, i also put in a few hose coolers, the 14 fin ones, the DS engine runs so hot i'll take every lil bit to keep 'er cool, one reason why i chose the big gun with its ceramic coating [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

I had Engine Ice in the DS until this afternoon, switched back to Watter Wetter. I just wanted to give the Engine Ice ago. Works better than normal coolant, but Not as good as Watter Wetter. Watter Wetter does not contain anti-freeze like Engince Ice, encase the temps fall below freezing.
