odaddy used it, its made by the same folks that make redline fluids. from what i hear it works. are you havin overheating problems? he still ahs em but its because the coolant is being ran through the radiator to quickly to cool it.

There was a big write up on Honda-Tech a long time ago. Everybody on there seemed to like it. But, they ran just that and water w/ almost no antifreeze. Got better performance as far as cooling. Just don't go w/ no antifreeze in the winter. ;) I was thinking about using it cause I'm about to flush my cooling sys.

ran it in my itr when my radiator was messed up and the engine kept overheating. after i used it i stay about 15-20 degrees cooler under load.

Ran it in my Ducati at the Talladega Grand Prix Raceway for Ed Bargy Racing School. Then left it in there and went to Dover once, and a few other street rides. Works fine...

I run it in the truck and car and love it. It made a difference when I put it in the car on how cool it stayed...and you know how hard it is to keep my car cool.

Do you guys just drain your radiator and fill with the water wetter and top off with water hose and just rely on the anti-freeze left in your block to keep it from freezing in the winter. Or does it have a additive in it kinda like anti-freeze?

I run a mixture of water wetter and 100% distilled water in both my f4i and my car. No water wetter doesn't contain any additives for antifreezing properties. Do NOT use regular water in any radiator. Reason being, Distilled water has a higher boiling point than tap water.
I'll be running stictly water wetter + Distilled water alll summer long... flush the cooling system on my car in fall and use antifreeze... but as long as we're not in freezing temperatures you'll be all right.

I have used water wetter and 40 below both in the dead of summer on the dirt car. 40 below works a little better. The big thing here is if you have a problom this is not a solution just a patch. If you are over heating, I would try to find out why. If it is a flow problom the additive will not help as much as you may think it is. Your head temps may be super high and the coolant may not be doing it's job. I would first go through all the normal heat bugers. thermo, water pump, and fan relays. Also look at your plugs to be sure you are not leaning out. If so the wetter water will just help burn your pistions.
