[QUOTE="11truckie, post: 1312012, member: 89268"] The "blowjob" instructions mention de-ionized water. I ran de-ionized water in lieu of distilled water and Water Wetter only in my track bikes and they ran 10 degrees cooler than they had with distilled water. When I told some of the more veteran members of the paddock about this some warned me that de-ionized water would cause damage to the innnards of the water jackets and rad and that they'd leech minerals, etc. As long as we're possibly splitting hairs, can anyone speak to the scientific merits of de-ionized water in a cooling system?
