This is a additive that you can add to you exzisting anti freeze to help it cool . I did a lot of asking before adding it to my ATV . Drag racers are require to run this in place of antifreeze because it is non corrosive . It is suggested to use only 15% antifreeze when using it for optimum cooling . The way this stuff work is by removing the air from water . If you have ever taken your raditor cap off and noticed air bubbles comming up the inside then that is where water is not making contact and not tranfering heat . You can run just this additive and no Antifreeze , but you run the risk of forgettin and frozen block this winter . So If you decide to add I would suggest that you just 50/50 antifreeze or use a tester then add this additive .

Is it Water Wetter your talking about made my Red-Line? That stuff is supposed to work pretty good. Might be very helpful on an ATV, moreso than a car.

Yes I do/did. I got one from a company called JT or something like that (on the net) It isn't working right now and I haven't messed with it. But it was working when I put in the Water Wetter and it did drop the temps.

The water wetter comes in 12 oz bottles for $7. You use one oz per qt of coolant. The engine ice comes in gallon size for $15 and will take about 1/2 gallon for an atv to give winter protection. The engine ice is propylene glycol which is not as toxic as ethylene glycol .
