As always, debunkin the mythology of combustion engine technology is high
on my priority list and I have questions about the following:
Water Wetter
This claims to instantly increase the efficientcy of the cooling system.
Anybody tried this? How can it do this without compromising the
boil-over temperature? Same question on RedLine water pump lube.
Side Gapping
This is an old tuner's trick on dragsters, bhut has anybody tried this on
their LBC? Any bennefits? BTW, what plugs do you use and what results
have people had with platinum plugs?
SplitFire
Sounds like absolute BS and that side gapping would accomplish the same
or a better result. Anybody tried 'em.
PTFE
In Motorcycle land, this is an absolute no no unless you have your
pistons coated and baked with the stuff. I hear this has minimal effect
and that it can clog oil filters. Any input? I think this is probably
no better than monkey snot.
Thanks in advance for all responses.
