Different, and better:

"If it did not freeze, water would be the ideal heat-transfer fluid for 
cooling applications. ... Between the two, *ethylene glycol* (C2H6O2) is 
a better heat transfer fluid than *propylene glycol* (C3H8O2). 
*Propylene glycol* is less toxic and is considered when toxicity is a 
concern."

Evans is propylene; its only advantage is its (relative) non-toxicity.  
The only thing I ever disliked about Edd China was when he did a plug 
for 'waterless coolant' (he didn't name the brand, but the jug looked 
like Evans).  He put it in a TR6 IIRC.

would not a couple of gallons of regular antifreeze, not the 50/50 mix, be
the same as waterless coolant?
