I wouldn't waste my money, Frank. But thats my opinion. You love in AZ, right? I would just run like a 70/30 or 80/20 water/coolant mix with a good thermostat. I assume you have a good radiator already? What fan? How hot do you run?

I am of the same mind as Mike. The thing is that no one wants to rely on a wetting agent to make the car run cooler. But if it already runs mint and you want to add a bottle for the sake of doing so, then go for it.

Mike, I dont wanna know where he loves.

that stuff is for people like me, who in the summer run a water/antifreeze ratio of 90/10. The water wetter makes up for the lack of antifreeze; which in this case keeps the water pump lubed. people who run 100% water NEED it.
