Mount Vernon, WA | A properly functioning cooling system really needs to be a closed-loop system, which you obviously cannot do when you are pumping well water into the engine block. During warm up, and during part loads, a portion of the coolant is recirculated through the block and heads. This would not work well if raw water was the sole inlet.
Also, to get temps above the boiling point, the system would need to be pressurized. That alone sinks the raw water idea, not withstanding the water quality issue. Then of course is the no nitrates for liner protection problem. | |
