Just looked at the Classic Motorsports restoration of a Tiger. He says he is using Redline Oil's Water Wetter.........for better heat transfer. Anybody tried it? Anybody see the Temp gauge go down?

I use it in my SM racecar based on widespread use by other racers. No testing on my part.. but no problems either. If you run antifreeze, I don't think I'd bother. ___________________________________

I use ONLY distilled water in my racing Alpine. We are not allowed to run anti-freeze so I just put in some Prestone anti-rust additive to keep the cooling system from rusting up on me. In fact, I on

If you think that you need a product like Water-wetter, then you need to take a look at your cooling system. Water-wetter, if it did work, is just a band aide for a bigger problem. I also use only di

As everyone is saying distilled is best, however checking the pH is also important if you have aluminum in the cooling system (heads, radiator,waterpump), if I'm not mistaken pH should be around 7.0

If the ph level is not at 7.0, what can you do to correct it? Is there an additive or a solution to maintain that ph level? Cullen '1452 _______________________________________________ Support Team.

Hi all, pH of a water solution ranges from 0 to 14. 7.0 is neutral and less than 7 is acidic; higher is basic. Why would distilled water be acidic? The water bottlers may add ozone to sterilize the w
