What else can I help you with?
Can you use distelled water instead of coolant?
Distilled water mixed with antifreeze ( usually 50 / 50 , Ford says up to 60 % antifreeze in colder climates )
Can you use water instead of antifreeze?
Yes, but. Antifreeze is also a corrosion inhibitor. It protects the engine and head gasket from corrosion problems. It is far better, and safer to use a 50/50 antifreeze and water mix in the engine.
Is it ok to put water in the radiator of a Volvo instead of antifreeze?
It is ok for a short time but you need to get a 50/50 mixture back in it asap (50% water & 50% antifreeze)
Can you use water instead of antifreeze on my quad?
Refer to owners manual and if using water to dilute use distilled water
If antifreeze puddle on ground from under coolant bucket do i need water pump?
It is possible that the antifreeze is coming from a bad water pump. Clean the engine off. Watch it to see where the antifreeze is leaking from, as it could be a hose instead of the pump.
Can i thaw frozen drain with antifreeze?
Instead try pouring salt water into the drain to thaw it
Should you put antifreeze in radiator instead of water?
No If You Have A Chevy Venture Van Like I Do Just Shoot Your SelfA correct and useful answerAll modern cars require a coolant mixture of a specific antifreeze and water. In some warm climates the mixture is water and corrosion inhibitor's.YOU MUST add the correct mixture of water and antifreeze!
What type of antifreeze should you use in home heating systems?
Inhibited propylene glycol if you are using antifreeze instead of water, But I do not understand why unless it is a vacation home or something along that line.
What happens to a car engine in freezing temperatures when there's no antifreeze?
If you have water instead of antifreeze in your cooling system, it will freeze! You won't be able to start the car, because the engine is connected to the water pump (which won't be able to move). If you have nothing in your cooling system (no water, no antifreeze, nothing else), then you need your head checked. Your car won't start either.
What is the better coolant for a car engine antifreeze or water?
Always use antifreeze. Water does not have any water pump lubricants or anti corrosion properties, antifreeze coolant does.
Can you add just water to my SUV instead of antifreeze?
Assuming that the temperature is above the freezing mark , and in an EMERGENCY you can use just water* BUT the antifreeze provides corrosion protection ( the corrosion package does " wear out " ) as well as lowering the freezing point and raising the boiling pointFord vehicles come from the factory with a 50 / 50 mix of distilled water and the correct type of antifreeze for the vehicleFord states not to drop below 40% antifreeze in the mix for corrosion protection and not to exceed 60% antifreeze to provide freeze protection in colder climates
Can antifreeze float or sink in water?
Antifreeze is typically denser than water, so it will sink when added to water.
