Evilchicken0 Posted July 2, 2022 Report Share Posted July 2, 2022 I think this is a thing, it doesnt expand when it heats up either What's the product name do we really like it, is it, is it wicked ??? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superdunc Posted July 2, 2022 Report Share Posted July 2, 2022 Evan's waterless coolant. Horrible stuff. Like filling you cooling system with brake fluid. Yuck. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gixxerthou Posted July 18, 2022 Report Share Posted July 18, 2022 I think you may mean this Boris: https://www.redlineoil.com/waterwetter I was going to use it in my Car a while ago, but changed my mind in the end. We call it WetterWatter round my way. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We call it WetterWatter round my way. Water wetter and waterless are two different things. Water wetter acts as a detergent to reduce the surface energy of the coolant and improve wetting of the cooling system surfaces, which can improve the heat transfer through the cooling system. Waterless is a coolant substitute that promises reduced coolant temps and no boiling due to its high boiling point. What they don't mention is that the reduced coolant temps are due to shitty heat transfer, with associated increase in cylinder head temps... 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2639 Posted July 28, 2022 Report Share Posted July 28, 2022 I understand some of the higher performance coolants are flammable. Not an issue on it's own, theres plenty of potential fuel when you look. But few would immediately expect leaking coolant to be the source of a fire.

The one upside is it apparently doesn't lead to corrosion of high mag castings, so might be the answer for things like NSR500 twins. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evilchicken0 Posted August 1, 2022 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2022 I wondered about it because the coolant is discoloured, a brown / rust and I thought if there wasnt any expansion i wouldnt need an expansion bottle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gammaboy Posted August 1, 2022 Report Share Posted August 1, 2022 There's still expansion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
