A Rookie’s Guide To Radiator Fluid: Antifreeze Vs. Coolant
Key Takeaways:
- Radiator fluid helps transfer heat away from the engine and prevents overheating.
- Antifreeze has many benefits, including preventing engine freezing and corrosion.
- Coolant prevents your radiator from overheating.
- Antifreeze and coolant also help lubricate the water pump so it can continue to move the coolant efficiently.
- Radiator fluid is typically ethylene glycol-based and needs to be replaced every two years or 30,000 miles or two years.
