red line water wetter
 

what is this???

It appears to be a post.



ok, ok....

It lowers the water temperature in your cooling system. It works. Might only be 5 degrees, on some systems maybe more.

"The less I race the crankier I get..."

makes water wetter....ofcourse..

seems to make watertemp lower...but if the actual iron in the engine gets cooler...not sure...anyone that knows?...maybe it just takes up less heat than plain water..well..inhibits rust..so anyway..its ok!

Water wetter eliminates the surface tension in water. Surface tension is what allows water to sort of "bulge" over the top of a glass if you fill it just slightly too full. Surface tension also prevents water from making full contact with the water jacket, which in turn prevents it from taking away as much heat. Surface tension also prevents water from making full contact with the tubes in the radiator, preventing it from releasing as much heat.

On old timer's trick was to add a few drops of dishwashing liquid (like you use in the sink, not in a dishwasher) to eliminate surface tension. Water wetter and various other chemical packages do that, and other things as well, such as preventing corrosion and lubricating seals.

I know about that...but still...have someone actually checked? i know a guy that had oil that ran cooler than other oil....he was puzzled and put sensors in the block...came out to that the metal was hotter and oil cooler that time...it was aluminum..thats why he wanted to know!
