The clunker program just wasted three nice Lexus automobiles, to think they are all crushed, breaks my heart.

They werent crushed. Trust me. My friend actually owns a "clunker" and its running and driving. It escaped the kill juice. Also, the cars have been found for sale at my local junk yard, and on www.ridesafely.com. They have not been crushed.

Whats in that "kill juice" and what does it do to the motor? besides the obvious of killing it. does it freeze up the internals?

Also called 'liquid glass,' the actual chemical is sodium silicate. Basically seizes the engine and clogs every passage.

1997 Toyota Supra
