Cheers, Paul.

Erm, put more in? Thats like asking what happens when you run out of fuel  :Hammer

Mine does after a while, but not quite to the low level it was before.  Its when your waiting in line at the strip and its reading 45+ because of the soak   :Hammer  


Quote from: dreMark - Same as what happens to mine at the moment, but after driving at a steady speed (say 50mph) for a couple of minutes they shoot right back down for me.

That\'s when WI comes in handy cos as soon as you are on boost and the water kicks in your temps come right down to normal ambient temps!!  :cool

Not really. If you have your car mapped for water injection and you run out of water, you will start to detonate = bad.

Ta, Paul.

edit: duh, run out of water not fuel!  :rolleyes:

This could argue all day over that coment. If you are paranoid about running out make some fail safes. Water injection with out propper tuning is a waste of power. I use a FMIC and Alch injection i can get my throttle body and plenim cold to touch. The only other way forward for me is no intercooler at all
