A friend has a 1990 with about 10o0K (miles) onit. He has used
low toxic (ethyl proponal?) antifreeze that is silicate based for
the last 70+K, over 5 years. When I read the horrow stories
I told him he needs to go back to honda AF. He is getting the T-
belt, water pump, etal changed next week. I hope to get a look
at the water pump.

Perhaps EP silicate based AF is safer the EG silicate AF.
I an't willing to test it on my Civic.
