Washer Fluid. This is so it doesn't freeze in the cold.

It comes with washer fluid from the factory and it is suggested to put washer fluid in it in the manual. My guess is because washer fluid doesnt freeze at 32 degrees like water. I dont drive mine in the winter so I switched to water personally but you definetely have washer fluid in there right now.

NOT water... they are getting it mixed up w/ subies which recommend that from factory. yes washer fluid...

i enjoyed playing w/ the sprayer myself so i'd pop it a few ice cubes before going for a run hehe but seriously its just a toy. dont stress over it

On road trips I put in a bag of ice and fill it up . Or when I leave work I dump what is left from my ice water cooler. Start toolin the evo home boostin and pressin the button. My uicp is cold to the touch when moms fever test is applied.
