[Healeys] hot Healey - radiator water additive??????????

[Bob Spidell]

I've been using it for years. It's most effective if you run 'pure' distilled water, since water has better thermal transfer properties than antifreeze. But, I add it to my approx. 60/40 water/antifreeze coolant mixture. I think, at best, with this mixture it's good for a degree or two cooler running (but that just might make the difference under certain circumstances).

hello all 



Been watching all the comments re our Healeys running hot............ 



I am a big fan of the magazine Classic Motorsports.B In the new issue, re a 
project car they are working on (Sunbeam Tiger), they talk about the car's 
cooling system.......B They talk about adding RED LINE OIL'S WATERWETTER to 
the cooling system and comment that, according to the manufacturer, it 
"adheres to the water molecules in the radiator and doubles the cooling 
capacity of ordinary water".........B B The writer goes on to say that they 
have been using it in their race cars for years........... 



Anyone tried it?B have any experience with it? 



tks, ray
