Hey I'm here and Marc is not from San Diego (I hope)I'm just lurking and agreeing with almost every post on this board...quite not the same for BNO though... I give up over there!!
I'm reading a lot of theory here and very little practical experience under real condtions. I give actual experience and get back theory. The people I know that have working radiator water sprayers use a lot of water, they may call them misters, but they are actually sprayers. I strated with a small system using a windsheild washer pump and it did nothing, somebody on one of the boards said they had to hook their system up to the house water supply with a regular RV pump so I followed their advice and it works. If one of you theorists want to set up their "misting" system and can honestly say it is possible to mist the air going into the radiator that is strong enough to pull your shirt off and it cools the engine I'm all ears. I've heard enough theory.--Geoff
Okay, I did a Google search to see what the GPM difference was between misters and sprayers and from what I gather you can get quite a bit of water through a mister. What I am having difficulty with is believing that you are actually going to maintain a mist directly in front of a air sucking radiator at operating speeds without the mist turning into water drops. I am happy with my spray system, but I am going to turn the sprayer adjustments down as I know I am showering more than enough water at my radiator. I wish I could look at someone who has a true mister system-- I have absolutely the highest regard for Richard and what he has to say so if he says a mister system worked for him, I believe it. I just want to see one in action, you may change my mind yet.--Geoff
