What are the disadvantages of having too much antifreeze?
1 Answers
There is no harm in having too much antifreeze. The excess antifreeze will expand due to heat during vehicle operation and overflow from the pressure relief valve, which is not harmful but may leave some stains. Antifreeze is a type of coolant containing special additives, mainly used in liquid-cooled engine cooling systems. It has excellent properties such as preventing freezing in winter, boiling in summer, and protecting against scale and corrosion all year round. In addition to ensuring the engine operates within the normal temperature range, antifreeze also provides anti-corrosion protection for components of the cooling system. It is important to maintain the antifreeze level within the reasonable range in the car radiator, i.e., between the upper and lower limits marked on the radiator.
