Newbie ? on FMIC spray fluid

The manual says use washer fluid to fill the intercooler spray system with. Cool I use water, or is there another solution?

You can use water, they tell you to use washer fluid as it will not freeze... when water freezes it expands which could cause the tank to crack or break. I only put washer fluid in mine in the winter months.

My tank has a hole in it.

The last Autox we had it was blazin hot and I wanted to have it full to help and just as fast as I poured it in, it ran out the bottom.

Sorry to hear that Brad. I'm sure you could find a replacement on here, since so many people think it's a useless system. I, for one, dont mind having it on a hot Philly day.

Yeah, on that particular day the track temps were over 120.

It may have helped a little bit.

It has an actual hole? When you over fill them the overflow dumps it out on the ground. Your haven't just mistaken that for a hole have you.
Not saying you wouldn't know the difference...

There is nothing in it.

No offense taken.
