The coolant is also interesting, just water with water wetter. Does water
wetter have corrosion inhibitors in it? IIRC someone on this forum was
suggesting this instead of the glycol based coolants but corrosion was the
problem.

You go me. Anybody? These race car sit around for months at a time.

I always ran 25-30% ( by volume) antifreeze for anti-corosion reasons. I have
somewhere a Prestone data sheet showing 50% as giving the max BP elevation
but I think the heat transfer fell off.. I'll find it if anyone is interested.
When I had the Sports Renault deal, we must have fixed about a billion cases
of overheating by draining out coolant and adding water. I tried 50% once
and, just like my customers, the car got too hot.
