Ive got a bottle of Water Wetter and I plan on using it next green shower appointment when I clean out one of my potentially clogged long metal coolant pipes. Some of my Mini Cooper friends SWEAR BY the Water Wetter becouse the A-Series motor tends to boil water in certain spots/areas inside the head. Im told that when these "spots" boil, they create air gaps between the coolant and the metal surface, causing the metal to get even hotter, perhaps even warping/cracking the metal. Water Wetter is supposed to stop this "spot boiling" I know Im probably out of my mind, but recently when I was boiling a pot of water for spagetti, I noticed that when the pot is greasy, the water tends to not want to bubble/boil(Im a messy cook) when I boil water in a CLEAN pot, the water bubbles right away. So perhaps Water Wetter does the same thing. Im going to boil some W.W in an old pot tonight and see if it bubbles just for shites N giggles:) Laters, Phil***84' Westy Tiico "Millenium Falcon" ***60' Morris Mini1340CC(For sale)
