Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)
Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.
These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.
1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.
2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.
3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.
4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.
The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

How hot is the anti-freeze?

Coolant can easily cause 3rd degree burns, but it would depend on how hot the car was.
Does it hurt? I would go see a medical person and have it checked out. Just in case its bad enough to get infected

A "Finished" project car is never finished until its been sold.
If at first you don't succeed, Try again. Don't give up too easily, persistance pays off in the end.

The coolant will have been hotter than boiling water. If in any doubt go to casualty...
Keep in mind that it may only be red skin now, but tomorrow it may be blistered and peeling skin, then infected...

I'm in the Preventive Maint Buisness So I do a lot of Radiator flushs and Have been burnt once or twice..lol
Don't go to the hospitle it's a waist of money!!!
Get your self a bucket of ice water it will make the pain go away.. Then Put some Burn Cream on it and Wrap it up!!! Keep it wraped for a couple of day and keep the Neosporin on it till it gets better.....
The last time I got burnt it took a layer of skin and all the hair off my arm...That Fucking Hurt!!!
Coolent Burns Are No Joke...But take off the Skirt and deal with it...lol

Id like to give my free medical advise. But i must bring to ye's attention that your burns have nothing to do with the performance of your CB. Unless we are talking driver reaction time...

First part was a silly made by me, dont take offense.<br>
