Royal Purple Purple Ice Review

Ok so I decided to try Royal Purple Purple Ice,since thier oil works great in my car.And all I can say is that it really works! My temp guage is usually straight accross in the middle,and has always been like that since I got my car.So the Other day I drained my radiator and Filled it cak up and added 16 capfulls of the purple ice like instructed.Well I tested my car out by doing daily driving,full throttle driving and last night I took a to boston.Well On all occasions my temp guage is always 3 notches lower!!! except when doing light driving around town,teh guage is usually 4 notches down.

So thats prrof enough for me that it's drastically reduces temps!

I get all my royal purple syuff from. Northern Auto Parts.

It's Only $9.99 a bottle and 1 bottle is enough to flush our systems and replace the coolant 3 times! so its work the $10 for me! and yeah it keeps the engine temp cooler.

Yeah I think that stuff is the same as the Redline Oil's "Water Wetter"
I just got a bottle of that and am going to do a flush of the system before I bring the car out and I am going to try some of that in it.
It looks like good stuff and from what I hear it works well too, so i cant wait to try it.

sounds interesting. how do you drain the stock coolant? i have only refilled mine because it tends to get low sometimes.

Draining is easy.It's the flush that even I couldnt do. All you do isput a pail under the bumper.And at the bottom of teh radiator is a little spout.Just open the spout and let the coolant drain.Then take your reserve tanke and lift it up so that drains into teh radiator and out the spout also.And if you want you can stick a hose on the radiator cap and flush it out as best you can.Then just close the spout up and refill.Takes about 3/4 of a gallon of the honda coolant.And after driving for a coupel days you'll need to keep checking it because it'll have to work its way through the engine again.

also before you start to drain,start the car real quick and turn the heat on.This will drain the coolant from the heating system also.Only takes liek 15-20 min for the whole process.

Thanks for the post I did not know about this stuff. I tried it and it is working good. I also recieved my SF Turbo oil restictor today and did an oil change after installing it. No more smoke

car feels great. Thanks for recommending it.
