Decent, but it's tough on the environment.

TL;DR Waterless EG coolant for performance and track builds · meets ASTM D3306/D8085 with a 375°F boiling point that eliminates boilover. No OEM approvals (its own spec track). Ethylene glycol base · H302 (harmful if swallowed) and Prop 65 warning apply; a bittering agent deters accidental ingestion but does not change the hazard classification.
Evans EC53001 replaces water-based coolant permanently in gasoline, light diesel, LP, and CNG vehicles. Meets ASTM D3306, D8085 (the non-aqueous standard Evans helped develop), and D7583. The 375°F boiling point eliminates boilover and sharply reduces system pressure vs. conventional 50/50 mixes. No named OEM approvals · an aftermarket product on its own spec track. Evans claims a lifetime service interval; no independent VOA data corroborates that. Ethylene glycol base · ingestion hazard in the Safety section.
Best for track cars, classic vehicles, or high-performance builds where boilover elimination justifies the per-gallon premium. Evans Prep Fluid (EC42001) is required first · most negative reviews trace to incomplete water removal. Skip for vehicles requiring a named OEM-approved coolant (GM Dexos, Ford WSS-M97B44-D, VW TL 774-G) · Evans carries none.
Signal word WARNING. H302 (ethylene glycol, harmful if swallowed, Cat 4) is the primary hazard; H361 (reproductive toxin, Cat 2), H373 (STOT RE Cat 2, kidney), and a Prop 65 warning for ethylene glycol (CAS 107-21-1) also apply. Denatonium benzoate (40 ppm) reduces palatability but does not change H302. SDS §8 lists eye and skin protection where splash is possible. Collect spent coolant for recycling · not to the ground.
