Antifreeze mixtures that contain more than 50% glycol can cause overheating problems with fresh water cooled Indmar engines. A consumer that is experiencing high engine operating temperatures or overheating at higher speeds and loads, may have too much glycol in the mix.

As the mixture of glycol to water was increased, the risk of over-heating the engine was even greater. Indmar uses Sierra propylene glycol for health and environmental [...]
