[DeTomaso] Red Line Water Wetter = Good stuff!

[cengles at cox.net]

Dear Mike,

I have used Water Wetter for twenty years in two Panteras. Initially, I had high hopes that it would drop the water temps by 8 to 18 degrees. I have not been able to see any difference on the Veglia gauge when I have used 100% water; water plus WW , 50/50 water&antifreeze or 50/50 + WW. I suspect that it does provide some improvement, but it is unfortunately not a quantum level of improvement. My experience is similar to John Taphorn's.

Warmest regards, Chuck Engles
