[QUOTE="B E N, post: 1491640, member: 33355"] Water wetter is an anti-corrosive agent to be used in race vehicles where track rules specifically forbid the use of glycol coolant. It does nothing to aid in cooling, and very likely hinders it since water has better thermal properties and higher thermal mass carrying capabilut. The main difference between the funny color ford coolant and the traditional green is lifespan/amount of anti-corrosion additives. Your best bet is to use the proper mix of water and the correct coolant concentrate for your freeze temp. You can find the mix ratios based on your regions coldest temp here: [URL]http://www.fcsdchemicalsandlubricants.com/quickref/ethylene.pdf[/URL] More on water vs coolant: [URL]https://www.hotrod.com/articles/glycol-or-water-coolant/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
