What happens when you add antifreeze to your engine instead of oil?

If you run it that way you will cause internal damage.


Will the engine be ruined if there is no antifreeze in cold weather?

Yes. The danger is, that when water freezes it expands, when it turns to ice. The coolant galleries inside the engine block may suffer cracking, if there is no where for the ice to expand to. You may be lucky and the core plugs will blow out instead. (Still a lot of work to put right). Antifreeze lowers the point of freezing and prevents this expansion problem.


You have put antifreeze instead of oil in your vauxhall astra?

Drain it out.


Water is poured into a cup then the temperature decreases below 0 degree celsius what happens next?

The water freezes into ice. In the process of freezing, liquid water expands 15% to form the crystalline structure of ice. So if your cup isn't sturdy, it's possible that the ice will shatter your cup. If your car's radiator has water instead of the proper mix of water and antifreeze, the ice crystals can crack your engine block and destroy the engine. Water freezing into ice is a VERY powerful force.


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.


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.


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 )


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.


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)

Will it hurt if you use water instead of coolant?

If you try and run an auto engine with just water, instead of antifreeze/coolant; your car's engine will not last more than a few minutes, before it overheats or freezes up, depending on the weather conditions and how hard you run the engine. Coolant is not an optional choice instead of water, it's mandatory if you want to keep the engine running in good condition and save your car and a lot of money. Get one of those hoses with meters and red pointer, at Wal-Mart and check and see how well your cars antifreeze/coolant is holding up. It only costs around five dollars.
