.DRAINED the whole system.. Then added -50 anti freeze ,for engines.. Bought it at West marine..If this does not work then.. o -well. aLL SHOULD BE FINE.. .....

-100? wHERE DOE THIS PERSON LIVE? RUSSIA?

The member with the -100 was working at a marina. Because they used a half a*** back yard quick and dirty method of winterizing (no drain and pump through only), they were using the -100 and crossing their fingers. There was plenty of debate here on the site and we gave him plenty to think about. He hasn't been on since I'd say this last spring. I'd guess in spring, that marina had a frozen block issue or more!!
