Re: Water Wetter cooling system enhancer

One of the claims they make is lower cylinder head temperatures. How do you make a claim like that? You install thermocouples and run them into a data logger. On the package they claim "Dyno Test Results". The only significant number is for water plus the Water Wetter. They don't mention what kind of motor or cooling system is being used, but I don't think those numbers are a fraud.

What bugs me is when they say - Change cooling system annually. That is a crock for anything except tap water.

As mentioned, if this product is doing anything it should result in less need to add water to the radiator in those low pressure Packard cooling systems. If it is acting like a diesel phosphate additive it will reduce block erosion, but that has to be determined in the lab.

I haven't seen anything condemning this product. I have seen a lot of vitriol as regards those waterless coolants being pushed by some perhaps paid for endorsers.

That aside here are the ingredients:

SECTION_ _1_ -_ INGREDIENTS

Di Isopropyl Alcohol Ether 1-40%
Tri Isopropyl Alcohol DiEther 1-40%
Sodium Molybdate 2-10%
Tolyltriazole 1-3%
PolySiloxane Polymer

This material is not known to contain greater than 0.1% of any carcinogen required to be listed under the OSHA Hazardous Materials Standard

Maybe you could get the same result from Kentucky bourbon. That answers the one year flush question. I suppose the sodium part is the lubricant they claim. The variation in the portions does seem to point to the snake oil conclusion.
