Can Water Be Added to Car Antifreeze?
1 Answers
Water can be added, but it must be purified or distilled water. Mineral water or well water should not be added. Introduction to Antifreeze: The full name of antifreeze should be antifreeze coolant, meaning a coolant with antifreeze function. Antifreeze can prevent the coolant from freezing and expanding in cold winter, which may crack the radiator or damage the engine cylinder block or head. Anti-corrosion Function: The engine and its cooling system are made of metal, including copper, iron, aluminum, steel, and solder. These metals, when in contact with water under high temperatures for a long time, can corrode and rust. Antifreeze not only does not cause corrosion to the engine cooling system but also has anti-corrosion and rust removal functions.
