HOW TO CHANGE THE WATER IN THE RADIATOR CAR?

DEPENDS ON WHAT KIND OF CAR YOU HAVE. MOST RADIATORS HAVE A DRAIN LINE AT THE VERY BOTTOM JUST UNSCREW IT AND LET IT DRAIN INTO A BUCKET. ALSO YOU NEED TO GET THE FLUID OUT OF THE ENGINE BLOCK THEY HAVE WHAT ARE CALLED %26quot;PET COCKS%26quot; ON THE SIDE OF MOST ENGINE BLOCKS.HOW TO CHANGE THE WATER IN THE RADIATOR CAR?
If you live in a cold area get 50/50

Its basically 50% water and 50% antifreeze

Take the cap off the radiator, but don't do it while its hot you will crack the block if the engine is hot.

The pour the 50/50 in



If you do not live in a cold are where the engine could freeze, then just use water, but its better to use water from a 1 gallon jug that's store bought. One of my car buddies told me that. Again do not do this while its hot.



my friends civic has a resivoir on the side don't forget to empty that too, and its best to look in your cars manual to find out how to drain it.HOW TO CHANGE THE WATER IN THE RADIATOR CAR?
The best way is to take it somewhere to have them flush the system. u can do it urself but u will not get all the old coolant out as bout half ur capacity sits in the water jackets/heater core which u wont get out unless u have a machine.HOW TO CHANGE THE WATER IN THE RADIATOR CAR?
pull the bottom hose off tet it drain then keep spraying water in it. then when you think its clean put the hose back on then fill it back up.(don't forget to put antifreeze back in it)
