It is best to do it while your vehicle is running so it will circulate through the system. You should add it to the reserve tank, never open the cap on your radiator (if it has one) while the system is hot.
Your engine should be cold ( to be on the safe side) when adding antifreeze/coolant. i let the car sit overnight and then add it.
yes but there should be no need to do this
( NO ) with the engine cool
NO! It should not be running.
The type of car antifreeze that is safest to the environment is propylene glycol antifreeze. While it is still not totally safe, it is less toxic than other antifreeze.
You should not drive a car that is running hot,because you can lock up the engine.
It will overheat, unless you can successfully air cool it.
No , it's best to add coolant when the engine is cold
your vehicle may smell like antifreeze while driving because it is overheating
i believe your heater core has died
A battery is used to start a car. Once it is running, the alternator then supplies electrical energy to charge the battery as well as power the electrical systems in the car. Removing the battery while the car is running will not affect the running of the car.
you have a leak in a hose or your radiator itself. Look for antifreeze dripping from under car while engine is running and hot enough for the fan to kick on.
