As for the antifreeze, dump it in a closed container and leave it at any auto shop, oil change shop, or pep boys. The have recyclers come by to pick up used oil, antifreeze etc and get rid of it according to city regulations. Pepboys allows you leave it there for free and no hassle. Most autoshops don't care and will take upon request. If you are afraid to ask just, be sneaky and leave it the garage at night.

Look at the coolingworks rads at swiftech. Strong alternative.
I don't mean to sound snobish but did you read the bottom of post #11 in this thread?

I am not going to break the law.(I am legally only allowed to dump it at city approved locations.)

And no autoshop I would willingly do business with would either.(It is illegal for them to accept antifreeze form me.)

I would have to travel to another town to dump any anitfreeze I used. And they don't look kindly on people form other towns doing that. (I have tried. They don't care if you are from in town but they generally don't allow you to dump it if you are form out of town. I have tried mom and pop shops, Pepboys, and Advanced Auto Parts.)

Water wetter slow eats some tubing.
Zerex I would have to ship to me ($$) since no one carries it near me.

And neither one is easily disposed of in my city.

Anti-alge I will consider after I have exhausted other possibilities. The key being cheap. I know it doesn't cost much but I think baking soda might work with no side effects a little bit of cleaning wont solve so I will test it.
