Water, or just light them on fire.... then add water
Remove the serpentine belt and the altenator. The water pump is behind the alternator. Make sure to drain the antifreeze.
You should remove the antifreeze with a shop vac if possible, antifreeze will not hurt the water, but is just one more thing in the water that you do not need to be there.
Probably all of it. Unless the volume of water in the system is known, it is impossible to know how much to remove and how much antifreeze is to be added to achieve the proper mixture. The correct mix is 1/2 water, 1/2 antifreeze at a minimum, but ideally, the mixture should be 70% antifreeze with 30% water.
Antifreeze is water soluble. You can use water to rinse the anti-freeze out of the carpeting provided you remove the carpeting from the car first. You don't want to put water on the carpet on the car while it is in the car because water will cause the floor to rust and holes in the floor are bad. The antifreeze, left in place, will not cause this problem. Note that wet carpet must be allowed to fully dry before being put back in place. This can take a few days.
hi there drain your coolent into a suitable container to dispose of as antifreeze is toxic to animals ie cats/dogs, unbolt the plastic fan shroud and remove, remove the auxillery belt if has air con will be one long belt, from there remove the fan and its pulleys, from there you can remove the water pump and replace it. then its just a case of refitting all filling up with water and antifreeze. hope this is of help to you nate
Always use antifreeze. Water does not have any water pump lubricants or anti corrosion properties, antifreeze coolant does.
A 50% water 50% antifreeze is recommended.
No. The antifreeze has to be mixed with the water before the water freezes.
Yes, antifreeze can leak from a water pump gasket.
50% water and 50% antifreeze year round.
disconnect battery. drain antifreeze. remove serpentine belt. remove alternator and bracket. remove water pump pulley. remove water pump. install new pump, install pulley. (recommended you install new thermostat while it is accesable) lower engine and reinstall motor mount. reinstall alternator bracket and alternator, reinstall serpentine belt, add antifreeze, reconnect battery. run car with cap off radiator bottle. when car warms up antifreeze will drop. top off until it doesn't take anymore. cap bottle and you are done.
