freezing temperatures and IC spray tank Spec C
 
Hi all, do you drain the water from your IC spray tank? In STI where spray bottle is in engine compartment it shouldn't be a problem but when the tank is in the boot water can easily freeze, any thoughts on this?
Thanks

Drain it, wont realy be of use in really cold weather anyway

Its quite well insulated but if you want then just put some screen wash in there to stop it freezing.

I'd be more concerned with the nozzles rather than the tank tbh

well it's not insulated at all, there's no any sound profing in the boot and it's just bare tank, but I'll drain as much as I can and it should be alright :)

You can't tell Tony about spec c's buddy, he'll tell you about them :thumb:

He is MR SPEC C on here :D:D:D

Just add screenwash to avoid freezing, DON'T use anti-freeze for obvious enviromental reasons!

Or could fill it with vodka :)

that's the best way of wasting vodka, I'd like to see the faces of coppers if they would pull me in :D

No you're not missing nothing, I have nothing in the back of my spec c.

bro82 22 October 2015 08:37 PM

Well so it seems I'll have to drain it or get it empty in more pleasant way :)
