Why the does the antifreeze reservoir keep losing antifreeze?
Sounds like a leak.
Cream colored paste in antifreeze?
Could be oil mixing with antifreeze indicating a bad head gasket Are you losing motor oil?
Why is your car losing antifreeze?
Cars loose Anti Freeze for one or more of the following reasons: 1. A leak in the radiator, or a broken radiator hose, or somewhere from the engine block. 2. If the antifreeze radiator an reservoir are overfilled, then when the engine heats up and expands the antifreeze. It has nowhere to go but out the overflow tube. 3. There is a crack in either the intake manifold or heads Gaskets, allowing the engine's vacuum to suck up the antifreeze slowly and burn it up with the fuel/air detonations. If severe enough, it will cause white smoke to come out with the exhaust fumes.
What is the synonym for antifreeze?
engine coolant
Why is your car losing antifreeze but not leaking it?
Its a strong indication of a blown head gasket
You are losing antifreeze cant find leak no drops on ground?
You may have blown a head gasket, check you oil to see if the antifreeze is leaking into there.
Side affects of breathing antifreeze odor from a combustible engine?
side affects of breathing antifreeze odor from a cng combustible engine
Your car overheats and loses water it is not thermostat what could it be?
need find out where you are losing antifreeze = look for leaks at radiator hoses etc first, then intake manifold top side of engine along sides of engine as well. Be careful if engine is hot .then lastly check you engine oil in case there is an internal antifreeze leak due to faulty intake manifold or head gasket. if not found have a pressure test done on the cooling system
What are the effects of antifreeze mixing into the engine oil?
A bad head gasket is the most common cause of antifreeze mixing in the oil. The antifreeze will dilute the oil and it will eventually cause your engine to seize up.
Can check engine light go on w low antifreeze?
Doubtful !... The antifreeze is added to the radiator - to keep the water above freezing point. There is no way of the engine knowing how much antifreeze is circulating.
Where is antifreeze tank in 99 contour?
The engine coolant reservoir is in the engine compartment , on the passenger side , about the middle ( 50 / 50 mix of antifreeze and preferably distilled water , do not exceed 60 % antifreeze )
Will it hurt the engine if you mix colors of antifreeze?
in some case it will. the composition of antifreeze is different by colour. in some engines the chemicals react with the engine parts (i.e. gaskets or seals) and cause the parts to fail. use the proper antifreeze for your engine.
