I doubt it as it's weathering/ wear and tear and not a failure. If I left it to fail it would be catastrophic! From: Alan Patterson [mailto:alan.j.patter...@btinternet.com] Sent: 29 May 2012 07:32 To: mogtalk2 Subject: Re: [mogtalk2] Possible 1967 +4 4 seater for sale Really sorry to hear

Owen  Another point is that pure MPG has a higher viscosity than MEG/water mixtures , so the water pump is going to have to work quite a lot harder. I don't know enough about fluid dynamics to be able to calculate whether this is really significant or just a concern.  However my major issue

Ian It's worth giving them a call to check - they may put some of it down to wear tear, but may cough up some of the cost on the basis it would cost them a lot more if it did fail altogether (when, ironically, it would probably be recoverable). Regards Alan AP08 MOG

And as water is 4.187 kJ/kg/K that suggests to me it's an inferior coolant. The fact the boiling point of MPG is much higher is almost irrelevant as if your cooling system reaches such temperatures, you've got other and bigger worries! rgds Martyn From: Andy Garlick

Hi Brian  As Martyn says it just is not better than water , or water /MEG mixtures (from the cooling perspective)  The only thing it has going for it is the lower corrosion , (with the possible added bonus that it much less toxic than MEG which is metabolised to oxalic acid by the body and that
