water is loaded with chlorine, minerals such as copper, calcium, lime, and other contaminates that the human body can handle fine under low substances in the less than .010 range. Under presser and heat though inside of the engine that these minerals become more reactive, and since they are caught in a cycle, then will only stay there braking down the engine block and sub-components.

You have had overheating problem with your car and quickly you filled the coolant tank with water and after you drive one mile your car overheated again and the the coolant dried up really quick?

If you can't see where its coming from, it may be a cracked head, or a bas headgasket. Also, when you add water to the coolant tank, it doesn't immediately go into the radiator. After the car sits a while, the radiator starts to cool, creating a vacuum. Water/coolant is then pulled into the radiator from the coolant tank.
