pretty much wasting your $$, a sled only needs a good 50/50 mixture or 60/40 of antifreeze and water.

run 50/50 or 60/40 AF / water and you will be fine.
Engine Ice is designed for guys that race or do track days with cars and motorcycles on road courses.

No Glycol based antifreeze is allowed on racetracks once you get past novice levels for track days. That glycol based AF is slippery as all hell and can cause more wrecks due to the slickness of it. plus it is a PITA to clean off the track surface.

straight distilled water, water wetter, or engine ice are about your only choices then.
 
ok ill just run regular antifreeze i was just looking for something to cool her down a little. thanks guys
 
ok i will try water wetter. what happened was i did the head mod and there wasnt much snow so i didnt go for a big ride but i just rode it around my yard and my light started flashing so i stopped and looked everything over and it needed more antifreze i think there was air it in and it was not flowing antifreze for a min.but dew to the extreme lack of snow i havent been able to ride it so see if i got it or not. i have only ridden them 2 times this year and should sell them , we just dont get the snow here anymore. but ne ways i will try water wetter. thanks
