So what happens to the juice you already have in the coolant, does it affect its abilities like reduce its antifeezyness? I know in the good ole days you just added water to the rad, but now days the whole lot comes in a special bottle and you have to top it up (if needed) with the same stuff or grade. I'll Ask Delta Oil if they can get hold of it and how much.

Oh sod it........
TinTop (Diff 1 qt, Gearbox 3 qts, Engine 8 qts)
Al2 (Diff 1 qt, Gearbox 3 qts, Engine 6 qts) PLUS 1 WATER WETTER

My only concern with this WW is that the engine temperature is reduced to such an extent that it provokes premature engine wear, a bit like V-Teching before the engine is properly up to temperature, which none of us do, do we?
If you get the chance Lee, could you mention it please.
It's really just to put my mind at rest - I would hope the developers have considered that

Al, I would be very suprised if it did, this stuff is more for once your engine has warmed up it will keep it cooler more efficiently. Apart from that the thermostat will have to kick in before the engine gets cooled.
Come on Guys you know you want/need it, its their biggest seller. The RRP is

Chaps, without wishing to throw a spanner in the works, I just went on the GoFastLab site to order one of these tray organiser thingies (see separate thread) and I happened to see their prices of Redline stuff.
The oil compares favourably in price, but I did notice the Water Wetter is only $9 to members.
I realise you'd need to add postage on to that, but the GB price does appear high in comparison as we're ordering a load of oil as well.
Maybe I'm overlooking something?

That is a good price for the Water Wetter, the oil seems comparible though and after shipping plus VAT it will beef the price up though. I'll ask Delta if they can do a match on the Wet stuff or a least bring it more in line.
