Actually there's a science-like reason for it, too: The volatile hydrocarbon heptane, toxic of course, is rather short lived and basically gets you high. If you can find brake cleaner with Hexane that's even better. Both substances evaporate from your work area and leave the body quickly.
Trichloroethylene, however, is a stable and long-living chemical. Short term effects are like a bad drink, disorientation and headache. It is found in many non-flammable brake and electrical cleaners and has a negative impact on the renal, nervous, immune, endocrine, reproductive, and cardiovascular systems. Oh it causes cancer, too...
Can you tell that I'm the H&S rep at work ? lol

Today I got it snogged for the third time in two months.
First time I had a CEL
Swapped transmissions for no light and a transfer case
Second time the CEL burnt out
Replaced the bulb today (pain in the *** btw. They solder that sucker into its little receptacle)
Third time so I can finally get my damn blue sticker!

Had this hose come lose and started to spray anti freeze everywhere. Trimmed of the bad end reattached and filled her up with some more anti freeze. Took all of 6 minutes but it counts

Yeah it's about that time, I had to reattach that one so I could drive to school tomorrow. I'll call napa this weekend, or have my dad order a braided hose from his distributor. But I know what your saying. It's probably never been replaced.
