    Antifreeze/Radiator Question

    Recently discovered when I fill my over flow up and go out in the morning it's gone. The radiator is full no problems there but, should the overflow be emptying like that? Will it hurt anything? I just don't want anything dieing on me when I'm dumping all this extra $ into aftermarket stuff, sure ya'll can understand me there.

      How do you burn antifreeze over night. LOL.

      you prob just have a leak somewhere man. Does your car over heat? Like he said if it's milky brown that means you're getting oil in the antifreeze(I doubt you are)

      Put something under the front of your car for the night when you put it in there and you'll find out if you're leaking.

          Pull the overflow out and check for cracks in the bottle.

              Well dude when you drive your car and it warms up it actually pulls coolant from the reservoir and goes back in from pressure when it cools so if your adding more and its not leaking somewhere your probably gonna have to much or some overflow. Good luck hope this helped.

                Yeah you could be leaking coolant into your oil. this is very Dangerous for your engine. In this case youll likely blow your engine if your not sure. like he said check your oil for coolant or signs that coolant is in your oil. to be sure of this i would change the oil. And coolant should float ontop of the oil in the catch can.
