Anyone tried engine ice? It might be a good step for our warm running motors....

 

I run it. It runs a few degrees cooler maybe, but not much. For sure worth a try.....

 

Wow, only a FEW degrees? I read on the bottle and they claim UP TO 50 degrees! I too am considering this as well.

 

A few is "up to". Probaby 50 degrees compared to an empty radiator....

 

lol!

 

Seems to me that it's formulated more the racer. Tracks (especially drag strips) usually don't allow or extremely discourage glycol based coolants in race vehicles. Lunch your waterpump on the launchpad at the strip and you've ruined it for everyone in that lane for a good while. Same would go for the apex of a sweeper on a roadrace circuit. Water-Wetter was the go-to additive for the longest time there.
Does it work in the real world? Never used it, so I don't know, but I do know how hot my bike gets in a freeway jam. I trust the judgement on this forum.
I'll wait for user opinions here. Or maybe I'll run it and let you know

 

I agree Wooferdog. I'm gonna try it anyway for the simple fact, it can't be worse than it is right now. My bike was running hot due to a faulty fan. I swapped the fan out and she seems to be running ok. I'm just looking to cool her down for when summer fully hits. Plus, Demon runs it, so, it's gotta be good!

 

One summer I had a car whose fan sending unit failed. I had to run the heater on high to keep it cool until I could replace the unit. It was brutal

 

yup did same thing with a truck i had going uphill towing a heavy boat the transmission
would start to overheat - turned the heater on - she'd cool off - smoke would stop but
I'd be sweating for all the wrong reasons

Anyway engine ice & Redlines water wetter do work well - I use water wetter in my
90 1000F not sure about 50 degrees cooling more like maybe 15 to 20 at best

 

Hey:

I run Water wetter in my daily driver 88CBR with 240,000+ miles on it here in the hot and humid Southern USA in traffic. Before I did I had to have a fan switch on most of the drive now I rarely use it and the only changes were a radiator flush, going to fresh coolant, and adding water wetter as well. This was a couple of years ago.

I also ran it in my Vette and Camaro with simular results about a 15-20 degree drop and does work well with coolant but even better with just plain water in my Camaro. That has been my results , so take what you may from them. I would recommend it in any street vehicle.
