As I stated in my previous message, my coach has copper air and fuel lines, not steel. It has air brakes, uses diesel fuel and vibrates more than anything I have ever driven. It is a roadworthy vehicle as are the thousands of Wanderlodges out there, so your statement is incorrect. That was my only point. Whether copper tubing works with brake fluid, gasoline or antifreeze, I can't speak to; I haven't ever used it in those applications. It seems to works fine for air and water pressure and diesel fuel. I can't imagine why it couldn't be used in a cooling system though. It is used in industrial settings for various types of fluids, both hot and cold.
