yes idiot the antifreeze is to keep the water from freezing
it can mess with both
If there is a small drip of antifreeze under the car behind the right front tire, this could be from the evaporation hose. Antifreeze may drip after the car has been run with the air conditioning on. If the air conditioning was not on just previous to noticing the antifreeze, it would be a good idea to check all of the hoses for leaks.
Probably - your head gasket is blown. Antifreeze will be coming out of the tail (exhaust) pipe.
I would say you have a bad water pump, thermostat or a bad hose depending on where the antifreeze is spraying from. If the antifreeze is coming from the timing cover area you have a bad pump, if it is coming from the front area of the motor I would say bad hose, if you are hearing a gurgling sound from the radiater I would say bad thermostat.
no you need to replace temperature sinding unit
It would depend on where the leak is coming from. Give us more info.
If it's coming from lower front I'd say water pump
no, why would it have antifreeze?
your heater core has got a leak and needs to be replaced
According to the 1998 Ford Ranger Owner Guide : The 2.5 liter four cylinder engine ( with air conditioning ) has an engine coolant system capacity of 7.2 U.S. quarts So a 50 / 50 mix of antifreeze and preferably distilled water would take : ( 3.6 quarts of antifreeze ) * Ford shows not to exceed 60 % antifreeze
Leak. What kind of liquid should be coming out? Antifreeze? Oil? And would it make the overflow for the raditor liquid bubble?
if your asking about your air conditioning, it could be your refrigerant, but a smell that would more closely resemble vinegar would probably be your coolant
