Where is antifreeze found?
You can find antifreeze at most large department stores in the automotive section or at an automotive store.
What happens when an engine lacks antifreeze?
If ice forms anywhere in the engine, it can crack the block.
What happens when antifreeze spills onto a hot engine?
The sillicate sin the antifreze react with the chmber of the engine
What happens is your radiator fluid is empty?
if you run your engine without antifreeze your car will overheat and ruin the engine.
What happens to a car engine when it over heats?
crack the engine block and oil mixes with water or antifreeze.
What happens if you accidentally pour antifreeze where your engine oil goes?
you have a big problem
What happens if you put antifreeze in the crankcase?
vehicle will overheat. just dump the oil and antifreeze , flush engine and refill with clean oil
What happens when antifreeze and synthetic oil mix?
It will destroy the engine from lack of lubrication and overheating.
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.
What color should the engine fluid be?
It depends on the fluid. Antifreeze is a different color from engine oil.
What are the substances found in engine coolant?
Engine coolant is a chemical compound. It consists mainly of water, but water freezes too easily so an antifreeze is added. This helps prevent the coolant from freezing on winter days and it also raises the boiling point which is helpful. An antifreeze contains mainly ethylene, but also has some methanol and propylene. The water and antifreeze make up around 90% of the coolant. The rest of it is chemicals to prevent rust and corrosion (redox reactions) occurring. In other words... Coolant contains: Water - 60% Antifreeze - 30% Others - 10% hope this helps
What happens when you add antifreeze to your engine instead of oil?
If you run it that way you will cause internal damage.
