what the hell?
 

I drained my radiator and put in mostly water some water wetter and some ant-freeze. The car was running hot but not overheating . NOW the thing runs way better more power and my low rpm stumble has become much less sevear, just from flushing the rad. Anyone ever have such an experience?

no but now I know what i'm doing this afternoon

doubtful - a common feeling when one works on a car is that it runs better
even though it doesnt - although maybe u can work some cool magic unlike
the rest of us HaHa

I heard that replacing the air in your tires can also increase horsepower...I'm going to do that as soon as I get home!

Seriously though, maybe you bumped a loose connection or something while you were under the hood. Did you replace the thermostat when you did this? Maybe it was a failure to warm up issue that has now been fixed?

thanks for nothing
 

what a bunch of smart asses. it runs cooler and more even temp wise. I'll think before I share anything else.

replace the air with helium!!!!!!!!!!!

Take it easy man, we're just having a very small bit of fun with you and there were also serious responses included.

If you have absolutely no sense of humor, you should post a disclaimer in your signature or something to give us some warning. :)

Your post did not exactly mention that the car is running cooler now, but I guess it was sort of implied. That could be the reason for an increase right there.

Tone down the defensive attitude and stick around man. We're really not a bad bunch of guys, but we do like to joke around a little. Hang out and get to know us before passing such a harsh judgement (please). And if I offended you, then I sincerely apologize. It was all meant in good fun.

Easy there "killer". You might get a bad rap around here with statements like that. No seriously, we all have had some better running days than others. Sometimes the air is a little more dense than other times. Give us a break, and get to know some of us before going to the deep end.
