Watter wetter is a coolant system addative, which increases the performance of water, enabling it to pull more heat. It also claims to reduce cylinder head temperatures, corrosion and electrolysis of all metals. When added to hard water, it reduces the scales. It's said to be good stuff, I use it, in both my Watercooled Computers and my Tbird. In my computer, I do notice lower temperatures, in my car, it's really difficult to tell with such an inaccurate guage. It can be bought @ most automotive stores, like Pep Boys, for about $6. You just basically pour a bottle of it in your overflow tank, and it'll work its magic.3.8_Special said:What is water weter and where do you buy it??
Um...I don't think its a real good idea to mess with it while the car is hot...Marvin M. said:do i put the car on neutral run it until it gets warmed up, then open the drain plug on the bottom of the radiator and fill the radiator with water until the temperature drops
Exactly, I've seen way too many cars in this area try to run full water since it doesn't get all that cold here and everything in their coolant system is rusting from the inside out.anomnity said:and make sure you check the % with a anti-freeze meter..($7)
because electrolysis can be really really bad....and for safe keeping...you should check the water in the radiator for any voltage evey once in a while...if sign of some voltage better change or electrolysis will kick in.
