Water wetter

[cullen winter]

I searched and failed to find info, so.....since I live in the third world (northern New Mexico), products like Red Line water wetter are hard to come by. Is there a more readily available product (think checker, or autozone) that will suffice for my soon to be ethylene glycol free cooling system ? Are you guys putting back in regular antifreeze for the subzero portions of the off season ? Thanks

lot of the bigger parts chains carry the stuff. I know that advance auto parts does. If you dont see it on the shelves, ask the parts counter if they can order it. The only other alternative that I know of is made by royal purple. I think its called purple ice. If you have any race prep shops in the area they probably sell the redline stuff.

 

As far as winter goes, since I live in the east and it does get below freezing here, I drain the water, and add a 50/50 coolant mix. When the spring comes around I drain and refill with distilled and water wetter.

On Track performance out here carries it. I can get some and bring it to an event.

Check your local chain stores... In my area, NAPA has RoyalPurple's stuff for about $14-$15, and AutoZone has RedLine Water Wetter for $7-$8 but I never noticed it there until Chris_V spotted it the other night.

What the hell are you guys talking about?

Winter?

Freezing?

What is that?

 

Don't you have racing temps of 100F to 120F out there everyday like us?

I actually found Water Wetter in this po-dunk little town !! Thanks for the offer Ian, and the other suggestions, guys. I'm in the high desert Tim, we're already dropping into the 40s at night (I bet that sounds good to you !)
