Can't user 5er again this winter - replace red goo in pipes?

For various reasons my RV won't be used again this winter. It was winterized a year ago. Does the alcohol evaporate (to where I don't know)? Should I replace the RV antifreeze before the second win...

I always drain the water from the lines and tanks, then pump antifreeze through the lines. Then I drain the lines so the last thing in them was the antifreeze.

If I was you, I would not worry about this.
Yup!

Blow the lines clear, push antifreeze through the lines, and then blow the lines clear again. Anything remaining in the lines won't freeze.

Enjoy,

Perry
