What if you don't put in antifreeze?

Best Answer

Antifreeze also provides corrosion protection for the cooling system parts , head

gaskets etc. ( until the corrosion additives in the antifreeze " wear out ") so even if

you live in an area that never freezes it's a good idea to use a 50 / 50 mix of antifreeze

and preferably distilled water

Water expands when it freezes , so freeze plugs / expansion plugs are installed in an

engine block to hopefully pop out and prevent the engine block from cracking
