Coolant Additive
It says on the redline website "Or it can be added to new or used antifreeze to improve the heat transfer of ethylene and propylene glycol systems" Will this stuff not work with the orange\yellow extended life antifeezes? Ethylene glycol is the normal green stuff right or does it all contain that? In the past I have always just bought the normal green stuff but i sent my wife to get some and she got the orange stuff.
I've found that Radiator Relief is a much better product reducing 30% of heat. I've tried Water Wetter, Purple Ice, and Be Cool for me DEI Radiator Relief works the best of any product out there. Ramchargers sale it, alot of race cars use this product.

Yep, that may be true, But, when you mix that little bottle of about a pint of liquid to over two gallons of liquid to include two gallons of anti-freeze do you think that little pint will make a difference regarding the freezing temp of the system on a mustang? The 50-50 mix of anit-freeze and water is good for 34 degrees fareinheight below zero. That little pint of WW has virtually no effect on the freezing protection. Good grief.

Water wetter (with just water) will freeze below 30* IIRC. I use it to great effect, but do not store (my car) below 45* in the winter...(so I'm okay).

So Good Grief MA.
Most likely the biggest benefit you get from WW and water only is that the WW resists corrosion, especially on aluminum. You guys with racing engines are right, in that only water and WW cools your engines more efficiently than anti-freeze/water mixture. But, most guys with Mustangs don't have racing engines, and live where it freezes, so they need the anti-freeze. Back to the corrosion thing, here is a test that seems to prove that WW does indeed protect against corrosion.

Old thread but good read, but I plan On trying WW out next week.
1st time out on the road course ended up being a pretty hot day, and the car seing only 3500-6000 rpms for a good steady 20 minutes the guage started climbing from 1/2 to 3/4, I didn like that.
I plan on getting what I can out via the lower hose, then filling with WW, and distilled water.
Will put back in the Antifreeze I took out before winter.
