Message: [QUOTE="Cold Roller, post: 693008, member: 9551"] OK, from strictly a heat transfer point of view, running pure water would work. However, that is not the problem! The problem is you don't want your coolant to change phase, as in boil! This is why you want to run with anti-boil (anti-freeze) in your coolant system. Rather than me posting it, do a search on boil-point for water vs temp vs pressure and do the same with a glycol additive (anti-freeze). You would have to be 100% certain that no region of your engine and coolant system was over the boil point or you would be in for big trouble. As previously mentioned, hard water (dissolved minerals) is death for a coolant system. Conversely, acidic coolant is equally bad. Distilled water is neutral, but it will still need corrosion inhibiters for iron oxidization and dissimilar metal electrolysis. Running straight water is a fool's venture. So much to loose for so little gain. [/QUOTE]
