100% coolant/antifreeze

Post by TONYT25T25 »

Watching a motor programme about refilling a car's cooling system with specialised coolant that has not water in it, mechanic removed the radiator cap when engine was up and running and hot and had no escape of liquid, curious to find out if this type of liquid would work in our vehicles and if so, would this prevent or complicate the function of the header tank and top up tank's operation due to lack of pressure I would guess.

Saw Ed China on wheeler dealers filling a car with waterless coolant. Not sure you could use it on our vans. The main problem would be getting all the water out of our engines I would have thought.
