We could not run our sportbikes on the track with radiator fluid- if spilt it leaves the track surface too slick. Everyone said run distilled water and Red line water wetter- it worked. If it got hot from idling in TX heat or traffic, it actually cooled down quicker.

Stan we use to use it in the race car. I never saw any cooler temps but it was a legal additive. They don't want anti freeze because of it's slick properties when puked out on the track.

Stano,
long time no see...yes, water wetter is compatible with your water and anti-freeze. I run it in the Nomad. Can't say it helps, but the Nomad doesn't overheat either. From what I've read it is more effective with straight water (distilled preferred). Good luck and drop me a line, let me know what you've been up to.

Well at "least" a beer drinker would have an endless supply of coolant then.

There was a great post on the stuff about a year back, but all I know is that it works. It is not my imagination that my temps dropped.
do you sell the stuff ?

40 Below by Pro Blend works much better. I've used it for years.
The new Evans water pump and their special waterless coolant is supposed to work well too. I'm just starting to experiment with that.
I fit Spal fans into the stock shrouds on my big motors. They REALLY pull some air. It takes a little fabrication but they will fit.
