My grandfather talked about the old days of draining the radiator every night and having to pump water into a bucket each morning to fill the radiator so he could go to work. Ethylene glycol solutions became available in 1926. I am sure it was expensive for someone making 2.5 cents an hour. He may have used water because it was free.
