Water Wetter

[GregE240]

Prompted by some sorry stories of overheating during the spate of fine weather we've had recently.

My father in law has had some minor problems with his car running a bit on the warm side and asked me for advice. I got in touch with some engineer mates who recommended this fine product so he added some into the coolant recently.

Well, what a difference. The engine runs significantly cooler now with the temp gauge registering a much lower engine temp. He's much more confident sitting in traffic now and the cooling fan really gets the temp back on the straight and narrow when it (eventually) cuts in.

All in all, money well spent.

We have used this in race engines in the past and i agree totally a fantastic product

I too hav had a good result with my Griff - has evened out the temp. No substitute for a tip top cooling system tho'

Guys - I've seen mixed reviews but am interested in your comments

a) what ratio do you add it (i.e. in relation to water & coolant)

b) where do you purchase it

c) cost

In the race car, and also in my water cooled kart I run it neat, and but it from demon tweeks

I've always used it, it is excellent.

The cheapest place you'll find it is Fluke Motorsport - www.fluke-motorsport.co.uk. £14.25 plus postage. Speak to George Martin.

Although a Water Wetter user.

I've wondered with "Forlife" with 180deg boiling point whether this is a better solution and may be able to reduce pressure- alternative to Evans?
