It's perfectly safe to pour anti-freeze down the drain - it will dilute & microbes will break it down.

We live on the marsh, have a septic system, I am thinking it probably wouldn't be a good idea to put it down the septic? I can take it into town and pour it in a toilet to the sewer, or to the auto parts store if they collect it. Any thoughts on best disposal method? GM decided to thread the fan/clutch assembly onto the water pump shaft, no apparent way to get it off when on the truck, jammed a screwdriver in the impellers once I removed the whole deal and the back of the water pump, beat on an adj wrench on the big nut, finally got it loose. There is a pulley on the shaft flange but the fan assy is not bolted to it like on the Benz. Score one for the Germans. --R _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new parts see official list sponsor: http://www.buymbparts.com/ For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com No virus found in this incoming message.
