That's usually a good place for it, as well as the overflow reservoir. It wouldn't do you much good to put it in the windshield washer reservoir, the oil pan, or the fuel tank, after all.
It goes to the water pump.
To put in more antifreeze in a 1995 Plymouth Voyager, located the reservoir near the radiator. Antifreeze is no longer added directly to the radiator. It is put into the plastic reservoir that is labeled radiator or coolant overflow.
No
Yes , usually a 50 / 50 mix of antifreeze and preferably distilled water is used
It goes into the expansion tank connected to the radiator.
Doubtful !... The antifreeze is added to the radiator - to keep the water above freezing point. There is no way of the engine knowing how much antifreeze is circulating.
I have a 91 Ford escort that has two caps. one is on the radiator itself and one next to it that says coolant only. how do I know where the antifreeze goes? does a mixture of coolant and water go in the radiator or does only water go in radiator and coolant in the other one? I have never seen an engine with this. could you help explain it?
Into the engine's radiator at the front of the engine compartment ; see the link below to a video tutorial .
If the entire system including the block, heater, radiator and all hoses were empty, it would take between 12 and 13 quarts to fill the system. So if you use a 50/50 mix of antifreeze and water you would need 6 to 6 1/2 quarts of antifreeze.
In the overflow tank as well as the radiator. You should not do this while the engine is HOT!
I drive a 98 Wrangler. The antifreeze gets poured in a container to the right of the radiator. The radiator is the very first thing between you and the engine when you pop the hood. Open the container to the right, and pour in your antifreeze. Make sure you don't do this when the car is hot. Also, mine is yellowish and there is a line and the word "FULL" to denote how much antifreeze you should put in.
The radiator only, aprox three quarts. The cooling system (radiator, engine, heater and hoses), aprox ten quarts. It depends on the engine size.
