I've got some pink RV water line anti freeze.
Says not to use in auto radiator / cooling
system. Anyone know why this is? I did a web
search. One site says it eats aluminum,
another says no additives.

Anyone want to share the real reason, and
a web site for reference?

Different horses for different courses. There is a reason there are
multiple products. RV antifreeze is propylene glycol which should
NEVER be mixed with ethylene glycol. Yes, there ARE propylene glycol
engine goolants - and some of them are "anhydrous" meaning "no water"


Why not mixed?
Why anhydrous?

Any proof of what you write?

How cold does it get there? RV antifreeze will not give you the same
protection you get with ethylene glycol
