Hot metal to a cooler liquid as in the engine block orįrom a hot liquid to cooler metal surfaces, as in the Is transferred in a cooling system by convection from Improvement due to the addition of water. Mixtures of glycol and water have nearly proportional Thermal conductivity compared to glycol coolants. Shown in Table 1, water has almost 2.5 times greater Medium - far superior to glycol-based coolants. Water has amazingly superior heat transfer propertiesĬompared to virtually any other liquid cooling Through the radiator 2 to 3 times the amount of energy In an automobile engine must absorb and reject This diagram demonstrates that the coolant Figure 1 showsĪ typical heat balance diagram for a spark ignitionĮngine.

Another problem is that theĬombustion chamber must be cooled enough to prevent Prevent thermal fatigue of the pistons, cylinder walls,Īnd the cylinder head.

Maintenance is very critical for most modern engines Replenish the corrosion inhibitors which are requiredįor trouble-free operation.

Improved metal wetting and excellent corrosion inhibition So I’d say it works.Red Line WaterWetter® is designed to provide I treated my Zero Turn Kawasaki engine 10 years ago and noticed it idled higher after the treatment. Team National stopped selling his products for some reason and had the engine treatment on sale and I bought 3 cases of it, and wish I bought more, although this has and will last me for years. He had rod bearings from a racing engine that was treated with his formula and it clearly had a smooth, slick coating on it. John Bishop used to come to our conventions and I would always go see him. I belong to a MLM company Team National and TN used to sell John Bishops products under a different name than Xcelplus, (“Thermo fuse” something). The Original Slick 50 (pre 1983 or so) had all kinds of tests done on it by different agencies such as the FAA and some universities, and was proven to reduce friction. If you want the real stuff Xcelplus is the original John Bishop formula. Petrolon sold to Quaker State and they kept the Slick 50 name, but the formula was junk and resulted in lawsuits. Petrolon (spelling?) could no longer use John Bishops formula in about 1983. Long story short, Petrolon, the company that used John Bishop’s patented formula and sold it under Slick 50 name, started screwing John Bishop. I met the man John Bishop who invented Slick 50 in the 1970’s a few years ago. Click to expand.I know the true Slick 50 story, and have the original formula that was used, it is the real stuff.
