I read that we should use ethylene glycol, not propylene glycol. The normal stuff you find is propylene glycol. Something about them being mixed not being good.

Of course, I just refilled mine with propylene glycol, regular stuff from Wal-mart.

That was from the 1st gen board on rx7club.com, so 2nd gen may be different?
