The late model B standard fans were two electric fans in front of the radiator 'pushing' air through the radiator. Mine had been replaced by a couple of layers of DPOs. One put a rocker switch on the

Sorry, but someone needs to correct that statement pronto. Mixing permanent antifreeze into water actually increases the boiling point of the coolant. It does however decrease the specific heat of th

I've used Water Wetter, and my experience is that you are correct. It did virtually nothing. Some people swear by it, but I saw no change. The best change I've seen so far has been using the proper t

To be exact, antifreeze increases the boiling point of the mixture over water alone. It also lowers the freezing point of the mixture over water alone. The viscosity changes slightly. Water alone, ho

I've had the same experience with Water Wetter, no improvement. Maybe this is because my brand of antifreeze already has "wetter" in it. Perhaps it helps when you're using straight water. BTW, don't
