What is the difference between engine coolant and radiator coolant? Will a general coolant work in both areas?
Aug 21, 2007 by onewayman13 | Posted in Maintenance & Repairs
My car overheated the other day and I checked the radiator coolant, which was empty. I refilled it but it overheated on me today. Does it need engine coolant as well? And if so would that be the same as radiator coolant? Or any other ideas what might
they are the same thing different name. Depending on the mileage of the car you could have one of three problems. 1. a leak 2. a bad thermostat or 3. a bad water pump. the cheapest to fix is the thermostat. how many miles on the car?
