You mix it with water.

to keep the engine from overheating.supplement. In Antarctica, it is common to use kerosene as the radiator fluid, as it does not freeze till about -60oC (according to my old memory).It is cheaper than antifreeze, readily available, and poses no great fire risk.(Our tractors were petrol fuelled which was a much greater fire risk.)It is not as efficient as water as a coolant, but at low temps, that is not a great concern.
As the pumped fluid carrying heat form the boiler to the radiators.
To keep The oil from freezing --------------- Engines produce alot of heat...to keep from overheating they require a method of dispersing that heat. Some cars are air cooled - but most use a Radiator filled with fluid, usually anti-freeze.(Ethylene Glycol) Even in winter an engine produces a signifigant amount of heat and, for the Radiator to operate properly fluid must flow from inside the motor to the radiator to disperse the heat load. The antifreeze ensures that the fluid doesn't freeze which would trap the heat inside the engine and cause it to overheat. Which will destroy the motor. Also Anti freeze has added benefits such as anti rust, which keeps the inside of the cast iron motor from rusting, That can plug the radiator. Another benefit is that antifreeze - if it gets into your engine oil (thru a bad intake gasket for example) you have time before the engine will be destroyed. In the old days they used Alcohol in Radiators (because of it's low freezing point) however, if it got into the oil it can destroy an engine fairly quickly. In summary - Antifreeze is very important to the proper operation of you car's engine.
it my be a freeze plug
green fluid is engine coolant. as this is showing up near the transmission this could be leaking from the head gasket or from a freeze plug. you will just have to trace back where it is coming from remember there are freeze plugs behind transmission which are not viible while transmission is in vehicle
You should never use transmission fluid in a radiator.You can use water without antifreeze in a radiator, but if the engine gets below 32 F (0 C) the water will freeze and severely damage the engine.
in the brake fluid reservoir, somewhere along the back of the engine bay. the cap will say something like "brake fluid dot 4 only"
You can't help the man on wimpy wonderland. You need to get the freeze fluid after you win the bingo game. Then you go to the market and give the owner your prize, then he will give you the freezer fluid.
The transmission dipstick runs along the driver side of the engine.
