so im getting my bike ready for my first track day, that will be happening in 2 weeks from today.... i need to get rid of the glycol coolant as per the organizer's rules (and thats just fine with me)! my only problem is... how much water wetter should i add per OZ or QT or GAL of water or whatever in order to get the correct cooling effect??? i checked the label, their website, did a (not very in depth)google search, and did a search on this forum, but didnt find anything saying what ratio i should mix it at. |

Here's an excerpt from their white paper: USE DIRECTIONS One 12 ounce bottle treats 12-16 quarts of water or a 50% ethylene or propylene glycol solution. In smaller cooling systems, use 4-5 caps per quart. Add directly through the cooling system fill cap into the radiator or into the overflow tank. Do not open a cooling system while hot. For best protection for aluminum, replenish or replace every 15,000 miles. The anti-scaling ingredients in Red Line WaterWetter® allow its use with ordinary tap water. However, using with distilled or deionized water will accomplish some scale removal in the cylinder head area. Plain water with or without WaterWetter® should not be used in cooling systems containing magnesium - antifreeze should be used - with WaterWetter®. For maximum temperature reductions use the most water and the least antifreeze possible to prevent freezing in your climate. Even in summertime the use of air-conditioning can blow freezing air through the heater and cause freezing of the heater core unless approximately 20% antifreeze is used. Red Line WaterWetter® is available in 12 ounce containers. Here's the link: http://www.redlineoil.com/whitePaper/21.pdf Or see if the track allows their premixed stuff.... supercool with water wetter. |
