WaterWetter Products

1320racer · 01-01-2016, 08:37 PM

tried it in several vehicles since the late 70s and over 3 decades. In street cars, street/strip cars and race cars, with 50/50 anti freeze and with straight water. Never saw a reduction in operating temperture in any of them. I'm long over donating my $ to redline. Today, my race cars run straight water and my passenger vehicles a 50/50 mix of antifreeze and water. None have have waterwetter in the cooling system.

I have often wondered about the increased cooling of the product but to be honest I am more concerned about its ability to help with rust and corrosion. I don't like to run antifreeze in my street cars at the track for obvious reasons and wanted a product to help combat corrosion and that I could leave in all summer. Anybody have any thoughts or experience on this?

Interesting comments...
One of the comments mentioned if you are using a Thermostat.
The temperature will modulate to the thermostats rating.
Which is logical.

I towed with my Caprice wagon up and down the Appalachia Mountains with no overheating issues without the Water-Wetter product.

Pull about 6000 plus lbs.
Car, trailer, racing stuff with a 4600lb Caprice Wagon in the heat.
Wagon Loaded, full tank and me is 4800 lbs.

Engine will ping pushing 70mph up the long sustained hills.
Backing down to 65mph was fine.
Figure some mid octane would be helpful.

Been suggested to flush the Coolant system thoroughly.
If Anti Freeze is clean does it really need to be changed every 2 years or 25,000 miles?
