EVANS: WATERLESS SOLUTION FOR PRESERVATION

We recently caught up with Mark Pieloch, owner of the American Muscle Car Museum in Melbourne, Florida. When asked why he uses Evans Waterless Coolant in his collection, here’s what Mark had to say:

“We use Evans Waterless Coolant here at the American Muscle Car Museum because of corrosion problems. We’ve seen cars with less than 100 miles with significant corrosion. Just

because a car looks brand new it doesn’t mean that internally it still is brand new. were in the process of switching over all 280 plus vehicles. We’ve found a lot of corrosion problems with the older, standard types of antifreeze, and by switching over to Evans Waterless Coolant, we’re addressing that corrosion problem.”

Preventing Corrosion and Electrolysis

Corrosion occurs when the elements of the engine react with the coolant. When corrosion starts to degrade cooling system metal it happens from the inside out – where water is in constant contact - and when finally recognized as a problem, preventative measures are no longer an option. What your left with is an expensive replacement of a radiator, pump, or thermostat. When water is removed from the cooling system, corrosion and electrolysis are dramatically reduced.

This is why collectors like Jay Leno and museums like the Simeone Foundation, The American Muscle Car Museum, and the Owl’s Head Transportation Museum use Evans to preserve their collections.

In a conversation with Octane Magazine, Jay Leno reveals why he uses waterless coolant:

ant. I use that in all my cars; my Bugatti has had waterless coolant in it for 15 or 16 years. Sometimes a car will sit for two or three months without being run and there’s no corrosion in it at all. It’s as clean as the day I put it in and it has a boiling point almost 150 degrees higher than water.

Superior Boil-over Protection

Evans High Performance Coolant has a boiling point of 375° F, more than 150°F above normal operating temperatures. Evans has the ability to absorb a high amount of heat before boiling, resulting in the lowest metal temperature in the cylinder ahead.

On the low end of the temperature scale, Evans protects to -40°F.

Pressure Decrease

Evans remains in its liquid state, meaning it won’t form vapor, build pressure, or boil out. With no vapor pressure created, Evans maintains constant liquid-to-metal contact, avoiding hot spots, and assuring consistent heat transfer. Tests have demonstrated that a typical 50/50 water/glycol conventional coolant will build a pressure of 16 psi at 230F in a hot engine. The same system with 100% Evans would only hold a pressure of 2-4 psi.

Older engines often have parts that are weakened by age. With significantly lower pressure, hoses, seals, gaskets last longer. In the event of a coolant leak, Evans will be a slow drip, rather than a high pressure, high volume expulsion of hot water/glycol coolant.
