I know you're not trying to argue, but if you ask a lot of people, even "qualified" technicians, they know nothing of the difference between propylene and ethylene glycol coolants.
Too Slick/TeeDub used to explain a lot about how propylene glycol does not turn into an acidic sludge and corrode the bearings. One poster (oilboy-something I believe) on here had an advertisement that contained a study showing that 1/2-1% of ethlyene glycol began causing rapid bearing wear, while 8% of propylene glycol showed no change in bearing wear. So that's what I'm referring to by "not nearly as rough."

I would think the EPA would be testing the fuel for lead.
Haha, that's what you get for thinking.
