anyone use water wetter?
just got my case (12 quarts) of redline oil 5w-30. gonna change it right now. but while i'm under there i was thinking about draining some coolant to put water wetter. you need less than 50% coolant and more water for the thing to work better. what do you guys think?

I use it. I think our coolant is 50/50 from the factory. I siphoned the correct amount of coolant from the top. Easier then messing with the drain plug.
Wetter won't change the operating temperature of the thermostat/engine. It's suppose to help diminish hot spots in the engine. I think my transmission is smother in traffic and my oil comsumption has gone down. Maybe my car has just broken in more.

all right! just changed everything. i'll keep you guys updated if i notice more mpg or more power (which i doubt, but you never know). i usually get 20-23 mpg and that's mainly freeway driving with some stop and go. time to take a shower.

Is 2 bottles redline's recommendations for your coolant capacity or just a little extra?

O....i always just used with what the factory has in it and put in one bottle of waterwetter myself. Guess I'll go with the 2 bottle route on my 30k checkup

It's amazing how flawless a modern engine can run, even when beat on a lot if meticulously maintained.

LOL, 55k miles on my poor V6 Accord, over 50 runs at the drag strip, 30 dyno runs, 2 auto-x's, countless street races, and reved to redline multiple times on a daily basis.
I just have it serviced religously.
